Albuquerque, NM (May 15, 2025) - On Tuesday, May 13, a pedestrian was injured after a traffic accident in northeast Albuquerque. The crash took place at the intersection of Wyoming Boulevard NE and Montgomery Boulevard NE. The victim was traveling on foot when they were reportedly hit by an oncoming motor vehicle.
Attending medical personnel provided aid to the injured party. Ambulances were available to transport the pedestrian to a local hospital for further support. The circumstances leading to the accident are still under investigation by local law enforcement officials. The area was temporarily closed while emergency crews were present. No further information on the accident is currently available, but any updates will be provided as the inquiry continues.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
There is always a risk for pedestrians when they use New Mexico roads. The state consistently ranks top in the United States for pedestrian fatalities and is home to some of the worst drivers in the nation. Numerous studies carried out by the Governor's Highway Safety Association (GHSA) demonstrate that New Mexico has a high rate of pedestrian fatalities. With 4.7 pedestrian deaths per 100,000 residents, New Mexico saw the highest number of pedestrian deaths ever in 2021. The majority of these deaths occurred in Albuquerque. Since pedestrians are unable to resist the entire force of a motor vehicle accident, pedestrian crashes are far more likely to result in catastrophic injuries. This is why working with an experienced attorney to build the best case possible is even more crucial to make sure you can get the full compensation available in your case.
