Speeding-related Accidents in New Mexico

There are speeders everywhere on the road. Unfortunately, New Mexico has some of the highest national rates of deadly speeding-related collisions. A recent nine-year study found that nearly 37 percent of the state’s fatal crashes involved speeding drivers. These crashes were a factor in about 2,000 fatalities. For every 100 fatal crashes in New Mexico, there were an estimated 115 deaths attributable to speeding. Three-quarters of the state’s almost 150 speeding-related deaths occurred in Bernalillo County, which is home to Albuquerque. Following a serious accident, you should confirm if you are qualified to file a personal injury claim with the help of a knowledgeable car accident lawyer in order to seek a complete recovery.
