New Mexico Car Wrecks

Each year, in the United States, millions of car accidents are reported. These accidents cause injuries to over 3 million people per year and take the lives of tens of thousands of people. Sadly, these numbers only continue to rise each year. In New Mexico, the story is no different, as the number of car crashes and the injuries that result from them are continuously on the rise.

Driver negligence continues to be the leading cause of car crashes in New Mexico and throughout the United States. Every year, over 400,000 vehicle collisions are caused by distracted driving alone, the most commonly seen type of driver negligence throughout the entire country. Over 3,000 people are killed due to the actions of distracted drivers annually. Other common forms of driver negligence in the United States include speeding, intoxication, and fatigue. 

When you or someone you love sustained serious injuries in a car accident, it is important to seek the proper medical care immediately. This will not only safeguard your health and ability to recover, but it will also prove the severity of your injuries later, especially if the crash wasn’t your fault and you wish to collect compensation.
