New Mexico Speeding-related Crashes

One important factor in road safety is speed. Speeding makes it more difficult to maintain control of your vehicle and stop in time to avoid road dangers. This is a potentially lethal combination that can significantly raise the likelihood of a collision while also amplifying any resulting injuries. According to statistics, speeding drivers have been linked to about one-third of traffic deaths documented in the United States over the previous 20 years, and high-speed crashes claim the lives of over 10,000 people annually. Here in New Mexico, speeding is much more common. Surprisingly, excessive speeding is a factor in 35 percent of fatal crashes in the state. Speeding is a potentially dangerous activity, and drivers who speed should be held accountable for their carelessness if they cause an accident.
