New Mexico Speeding-related Accidents
New Mexico motorists are known for engaging in reckless actions behind the wheel. The state has some of the highest rates of collisions caused by speeding, intoxication, and driver distraction. Tens of thousands of people are killed each year by speeding drivers across the United States. In fact, speeding has been a factor in roughly one-third of reported traffic fatalities nationwide in the past thirty years. When you exceed the speed limit, you are more likely to lose control of your vehicle, and the force of impact is more likely to cause life-threatening injuries.
You do not have to face a large insurer alone. You also have the right to refuse any unfair settlement offered by an insurance provider. In many cases, these quick settlements are not enough to completely reimburse you for your damages and injuries. If you accept a subpar settlement, you will be giving up your ability to seek any additional compensation.
