New Mexico Distracted Driving Crashes

Every day, we seem to see more and more drivers looking down at their phones, a common form of distraction behind the wheel. Accident statistics show that about 41 percent of deadly crashes in the United States are caused by drivers who are not paying attention. In New Mexico, this number is shockingly high. There are almost five times as many distracted-driving crashes in New Mexico compared to the rest of the country. Those who have to drive in New Mexico should be alarmed by these numbers, and they should always keep in mind that a careless driver can cause an accident at any time. After a terrible car accident, you need to be ready to do what you need to do to protect your rights.
