High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico

According to statistics, the primary causes of serious collisions in New Mexico are driving while intoxicated, speeding, and distracted driving. Unfortunately, a lot of people speed on the state’s roadways. An estimated 30 people die in high-speed crashes in the United States nearly every day, and over 10,000 people are killed annually. It’s much harder to control a car at fast speeds, and it also increases stopping distance. This combination has the potential to cause catastrophic car crashes. Following a serious auto accident, you should be prepared to collaborate closely with a knowledgeable lawyer to take the necessary actions to protect your rights.
