New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

Driving requires complete focus on the road, although many people drive while distracted. A growing number of serious collisions in New Mexico and the rest of the nation are being caused by distracted driving. Every year in the United States, drivers who are distracted cause the deaths of over 3,000 individuals and severe injuries to countless more. While it is common knowledge that texting and driving can be risky, other activities that might cause distractions while driving include eating, conversing with other passengers, and even fiddling with the radio. Driving a motor vehicle requires you to pay close attention to the road, and in the event of a serious collision, a distracted driver should be held responsible.
