Distracted Driving Crashes in New Mexico

It is already dangerous to share the road with other drivers. It is even worse when motorists fail to pay attention to the road. One of the main causes of deadly collisions in New Mexico and the nation at large is distracted driving. On American highways, distracted drivers result in over 400,000 injuries and over 3,000 fatalities annually. The fact that New Mexico has almost five times the national average for fatal distracted driving collisions may come as a shock. After a major auto accident, it is of key importance that you are ready to defend your legal rights.
