Speeding-related Crashes in New Mexico

Comfortable drivers are more prone to speeding, and residents of New Mexico have a terrible track record of exceeding the posted speed limit. Unfortunately, because of this careless behavior, everyone has a higher chance of getting injured when driving. Speeding drivers are less able to control their cars and stop in time to prevent an accident. Every year, tens of thousands of Americans are killed in high-speed crashes, and in New Mexico, speeding drivers account for more than 25 percent of all traffic fatalities.
