Car Accidents in New Mexico

Car accidents can be incredibly challenging to overcome, especially if a person suffers serious injuries. Unfortunately, there are many people who are unsure of what to do after being involved in an accident. As per New Mexico Statutes Annotated sections 66-7-206 and 66-7-207, any person who is operating a vehicle who is involved in an automobile accident within the state must provide a report if the crash:

• Results in bodily injury or the death of any person.
• Results in property damage that appears to exceed $500 or more.

If the collision occurs within a municipality, the driver is required to report it to the local police department. In cases where the crash takes place outside a municipality, the driver should report it to the office of the county sheriff or the nearest New Mexico State Police office.

The report must be made “immediately, by the fastest available means of communication.” Additionally, the driver must submit a written report of the accident to the New Mexico Department of Transportation within a five-day timeframe.

Unfortunately, this can be incredibly confusing for individuals, especially if they have never been through this process before.
