Motorcycle Accidents in New Mexico

The National Center for Statistics and Analysis reports that over 5000 motorcycle riders lost their lives in crashes in 2019. Nearly 94% of the people who died in more than  5000 motorcycle accidents were operators of the bike, and 6% were passengers. A total of 42 fatalities from motorcycle accidents that year happened in New Mexico.

Riding a motorcycle offers a certain amount of freedom, but it also raises concerns about other motorists' willingness to share the road and give you room. In New Mexico, a motorcyclist is hurt or killed in collisions almost every day. All too frequently, the driver was careless and wasn't looking or paying attention, which led to the collision. 

The grief and suffering that come with any traumatic tragedy like this, as well as the medical expenses and other financial losses, are likely to be present for everyone who has been hurt or lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident. You might be adjusting to the possibility of a protracted recovery or a future that has been changed forever.
