Distracted Driving Crashes in New Mexico

When you operate a motor vehicle, you have a duty to prevent causing injury to others on the road. Unfortunately, many drivers in New Mexico engage in reckless behaviors behind the wheel, putting themselves and others at risk. There are more than 45,000 car accidents reported in the state each year, and nearly half of these crashes involve distracted driving in some form. A distracted driver caused a crash somewhere in the state almost 56 minutes in a recent year. You can travel the length of a football field in the time it takes to send a single text message while traveling at highway speeds. If you are seriously hurt due to the actions of a negligent motorist on the road, you need to be sure that you can pursue a claim for compensation with the help of a trained personal injury lawyer.
