New Mexico Speeding-related Crashes

Speeding is a factor in about 37 percent of New Mexico traffic fatalities, and the state has one of the highest rates of fatal speeding-related crashes in the country. According to the latest statistics, there are 115 speeding-related fatalities in the state for every 100 fatal auto accidents, and tens of thousands of deaths nationwide are attributed to speeding drivers each year. Speeding drivers were responsible for more than one-third of traffic-related fatalities during the past 20 years. You put yourself and everyone else on the road in danger any time you speed. It is much easier to lose control of a vehicle when traveling at a high rate of speed, and the resulting injuries are much more severe. If a careless motorist causes you harm, you should pursue a personal injury claim in collaboration with an experienced car crash attorney.
