Albuquerque Car Accidents

Every single year, over 6 million car crashes happen in the United States. These wrecks are caused by many different things. However, the majority of them are the result of negligent driving. Drivers who are distracted, fatigued, intoxicated, and traveling at unsafe speeds risk their own lives and everyone else’s lives. In New Mexico specifically, negligent driving is the main reason most auto collisions happen. Negligent driving is also the main cause of car crashes across the United States. Each year, over 90% of reported car accidents in the US are caused by the actions of negligent drivers. 

Statistics show that more than 6 million car accidents are reported annually in the United States. This means that about 5 million are caused by negligent driving. The most common form of negligent driving is distraction, which is responsible for approximately 400,000 auto collisions per year and approximately 3,000 fatalities. Other common forms of driver negligence include driver fatigue, intoxication, and speeding. About 11,000 people are killed per year due to the actions of drivers who travel at unsafe speeds, while about 30% of the national accident fatality rate is related to intoxicated driving.
