Distracted Driving Accidents in New Mexico

Driver distraction is quickly becoming one of the leading causes of serious and fatal collisions nationwide. An estimated 3,000 fatal car accidents are caused by distracted driving each year, and between 8 and 9 percent of all fatal motor vehicle collisions involve some level of driver distraction. Too many drivers here in New Mexico are not paying enough attention to the road, which leads to hazardous collisions and significant injuries.

After a crash, your health and well-being are what matter most. If you have a personal injury, go to the doctor or emergency room right away to be checked out. You may not be able to fully realize how serious an injury is until much later, and conditions such as minor traumatic brain injuries or even damaged spinal discs can go completely unnoticed immediately after a car accident. This is why it is so important to consult a doctor as soon as possible if you are injured by a reckless driver. It also helps to serve as documentation that your injuries resulted from the accident. 

You should not represent yourself or your personal injury claim following a car crash. You may get a call from the insurance provider of the at-fault party, and it is probably just an attempt to take advantage of your inexperience with the legal system. Insurance companies are known to make incredibly low settlement offers to unsuspecting car accident victims before you have the chance to speak with a New Mexico personal injury attorney who specializes in car accident cases. In order to find out the true worth of your claim, get in touch with an accident lawyer right away.
