New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

It is the duty of every driver to focus on the road when operating a motor vehicle. Unfortunately, many drivers in New Mexico fail to do so. Distracted driving is becoming increasingly common in serious collisions throughout the state. Over 3,000 people nationwide lose their lives to distracted driving-related accidents each year, with many others being seriously hurt. In the time it takes to send one text, you could travel the length of a football field, which is more than enough to cause a serious auto accident. You must maintain your attention on the road when driving to prevent causing serious injuries to yourself and others. Those who drive carelessly should be held accountable in the case of a tragic collision. When you work with a trained lawyer, you can present a strong compensation case.
