Reckless Driving Crashes in New Mexico

There is always a chance that you will be in a car accident, and reckless driving is common in New Mexico. Nearly 20.6 percent of crashes in New Mexico, according to the 2018 New Mexico Traffic Crash Annual Report, involve some form of driver distraction. According to the report, drivers who fail to yield the right of way are responsible for 14.5 percent of car accidents and speeding is a factor in 5 percent of reported collisions. Reckless driving can take many different forms in the state, and those who are injured need to be prepared to stand up for their rights if they are wrongfully hurt by a negligent driver.

Car crashes are a reality for many New Mexico residents, and it is safe to say that no one ever plans or expects to be injured in a serious collision. Unfortunately, car wrecks happen every single day, and you need to be prepared if you or a loved one is involved in a serious crash. That means partnering with a law firm that has many years of experience and a successful track record of recovering fair compensation in personal injury claims. 

The aftermath of a car accident can sometimes be just as difficult as the crash itself. You will need to get evaluated by a medical professional who can help you determine how seriously you were hurt. You will also need to collect evidence that can be used to back up your claim for compensation. Dealing with all these key steps can be extremely difficult as you try to get your life back together. You should not be left to pursue a personal injury claim on your own.
