Car Crashes in New Mexico

You never really know if or when you’ll be hurt by a reckless driver. Statistics show that the annual number of fatal crashes in New Mexico is rising with each passing year. With 470 recorded road deaths in the state, 2021 was one of the deadliest years for car accidents on New Mexico roads in recent memory. According to the most recent data, speeding, driving while intoxicated, and distracted driving are some of the most frequent causes of serious car accidents in the Land of Enchantment. One possible explanation for New Mexico’s high number of fatal collisions could be the fact that the state has some of the worst drivers in the nation.
