New Mexico Pedestrian Accidents

In Albuquerque and throughout New Mexico, where the number of pedestrian fatalities has steadily increased, the issue of pedestrian safety is becoming worse. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, pedestrian accidents in New Mexico claim the lives of about 70 persons annually. Pedestrians are at greater risk of suffering life-threatening injuries in the event of a crash. 

In some of the most hazardous car accidents in New Mexico, a pedestrian, jogger, skater, or cyclist is struck by a car. People frequently sustain shattered bones, internal bleeding, and other injuries when they are not in a vehicle to cushion the impact. Even though these collisions typically occur at modest speeds, they frequently cause severe harm or even fatalities. You can obtain monetary compensation with the aid of a New Mexico pedestrian accident attorney.

Whatever the reason for your accident, it is likely that you will be hurt if you were on foot. These injuries can be severe since the typical pedestrian lacks any external protection.
