New Mexico Car Accidents

Auto accidents happen all the time in the state of New Mexico. Regrettably, the majority of them are caused by driver negligence. Tens of thousands of crashes happen per year in the Land of Enchantment that cause injuries to thousands of people. Currently, driver intoxication and speeding are the two top causes of road accidents in the state. 

Car accidents can happen for a multitude of different reasons. Vehicle problems, bad weather, construction, and driver negligence contribute to millions of auto accidents every year in the United States. However, one of those car crash causes is responsible for 90% of reported auto accidents in the United States: driver negligence. 

When we consider that over 6 million car crashes happen each year in the US, it is hard to believe that most of those are caused by the actions of negligent drivers. Negligent driving can be displayed by fatigued, intoxicated, distracted, or speeding drivers. Drivers who choose to pay attention to anything other than the road in front of them are distracted and could cause a crash that results in injuries or worse. Unfortunately, in today’s world, drivers have more reasons than ever to become distracted.
