New Mexico Distracted Driving Accidents

Given the increasing number of drivers looking down at their phones every day, it is reasonable to assume that distracted driving is on the rise. According to the most recent figures, distracted driving accounts for an astoundingly high percentage of crashes in New Mexico and is a contributing factor in nearly 41 percent of fatalities countrywide. New Mexico has a distracted driving crash rate that is nearly 12 percentage points higher than that of Hawaii, the second-highest state on the list, but it is still about five times higher than the national average. These statistics should worry everybody who has to drive in New Mexico, and they should always remember that a distracted motorist could hit someone at any time.
