New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

Many drivers now readily admit to using their phones while driving, and unfortunately, it is not uncommon to see motorists looking down at their phones on the road. With 61.6 distracted driving fatalities per million residents, New Mexico leads the nation in these related car accidents, and the state has some of the highest rates of drunk drivers. About 40.75 percent of crashes reported in the state—nearly five times more than the national average—are caused by distracted driving. It should come as no surprise that a large number of state citizens suffer catastrophic injuries in auto accidents each year, given the high number of careless drivers on the road. With the assistance of an experienced lawyer, you might be able to pursue a claim for compensation.
