Pedestrian Accidents in New Mexico

On the road, pedestrians have little protection, and they virtually always sustain more severe injuries in collisions. There were 40 fatal accidents on Albuquerque's roads and those in unincorporated Bernalillo County in 2022. One of the highest pedestrian death rates in the country is found in New Mexico, and this is confirmed by data compiled by national organizations such as the Governors Highway Safety Association. If a pedestrian collision resulted in serious injuries, you may be eligible for compensation.

A pedestrian or their family can take legal action under New Mexico personal injury law when a car or truck driver causes them to be injured. According to the law, both pedestrians and drivers have obligations, and a negligent driver who causes a pedestrian accident may be held accountable for the victim's damages.

If you were a pedestrian who was hurt in a crash, you might have suffered severe or even life-altering injuries. Accidents involving pedestrians frequently result in broken bones, injuries to the neck or back, harm to internal organs, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries.
