Pedestrian Accidents in New Mexico

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.
