Distracted Driving Accidents in New Mexico

The road is already a dangerous place when drivers are paying attention, but it is even more so when drivers fail to look at the road. Distracted driving has quickly become one of the leading contributors to fatal crashes in New Mexico and across the country. Each year, careless drivers cause more than 400,000 injuries and over 3,000 fatalities on American roads. It may be shocking to know that New Mexico’s rate of fatal distracted driving crashes is nearly five times the national average.
