New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

It is the duty of every driver to pay attention to the road, but many fail to do so. Each year, more than 45,000 car accidents take place in New Mexico. According to statistics, driver distraction accounts for the majority of these collisions. In New Mexico in a recent year, a distracted driving crash took place every 56 minutes on average. In just the few seconds it takes to check a text while driving at highway speeds, you can cover the length of a football field. If a distracted motorist is found to be at fault for a collision, they may be held accountable for any resulting injuries and other damages.
