Speeding-related Crashes in New Mexico

Major auto accidents are always possible in New Mexico, but the likelihood of an accident increases significantly when a driver speeds. This is because excessive speeding makes stopping considerably more difficult while also making it more difficult for drivers to react to unforeseen hazards on the road. According to the most recent crash statistics, high-speed crashes account for about 25 percent of all fatal auto accidents, resulting in thousands of fatalities each year across the country.
