High-Speed Accidents in Albuquerque

Speeding has been a factor in roughly one-third of reported traffic fatalities nationwide over the past twenty years. In 2018, a total of 9,378 people lost their lives in high-speed collisions, an average of 25 deaths per day. New Mexico ranks twelfth in the country for high-speed crashes according to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Exceeding the speed limit is also known to magnify the severity of resulting injuries in the event of a crash.
