Speed can mean the difference between a minor and a catastrophic car accident. According to statistics, nearly 29 percent of all reported traffic fatalities nationwide in 2021 involved speeding, and a total of 12,330 people died in high-speed crashes that year. High-speed crashes cost the American people more than $40.4 billion annually, and this shows how devastating a car accident can be for victims. Speeding is a factor in nearly 31 percent of fatal motorcycle accidents, 18 percent of fatal car accidents, and 14 percent of fatal light-truck accidents.
No matter what caused your injuries, crash victims in New Mexico have a right to seek compensation for their damages resulting from a serious accident. You should not be held financially responsible for the actions of a reckless driver. Your road to recovery needs to start immediately after your accident. That means seeking medical treatment and being able to collect relevant evidence to back up your case. You may not know how to start the complicated claims process, and it is recommended that all crash victims first contact a trained New Mexico personal injury lawyer in order to get started.
There are certain things that should be done after a car accident. After making sure that you are okay, you should try documenting the crash site. This can involve taking pictures of the damaged vehicles and the general scene of the accident. Police officers may come if the crash is particularly severe, and they will file an official accident report. This report will assign blame for the accident, but you should still reach out to anyone who may have been around to witness the incident to get their contact information.
