New Mexico Distracted Driving Wrecks

Anyone operating a motor vehicle must keep their eyes on the road. Sadly, a lot of drivers are distracted behind the wheel. In New Mexico, distracted driving is becoming a bigger factor in serious auto accidents. Driving while intoxicated results in more than 3,000 fatalities and numerous severe injuries annually across the country. Texting and driving is a prevalent offense that many people commit on the road these days. You should always focus entirely on the road when driving, and in the event of a catastrophic collision, distracted drivers should be held accountable.
