Speeding-related Accidents in New Mexico 

New Mexico drivers have a reputation for operating cars recklessly. According to data, driving under the influence, driving while distracted, and speeding are the main reasons for severe collisions in the state. Speeding is particularly prevalent on the state’s roadways. Over 10,000 people nationally lose their lives in high-speed collisions every year. Every day, about 33 individuals are killed by speeding drivers. Speeding increases stopping distance and greatly reduces a driver’s ability to control their vehicle, two potentially fatal combo factors that lead to a number of fatal crashes in New Mexico.
