Motorcycle Accidents in Albuquerque
Riding a motorcycle is a wonderful pastime shared by many New Mexico residents. However, the design of a motorcycle leaves its riders at greater risk of suffering serious injuries in the event of a crash. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, motorcyclists are nearly 27 times more likely to be killed in a motor vehicle collision, and an estimated 80% of motorcycle crashes result in death or injury.
Every day, a motorcyclist is injured or killed in New Mexico, and motorcycle fatalities have been on the rise across the country, despite an overall drop in other types of car accidents. Not only are riders more likely to be seriously injured, but most drivers also fail to look out for motorcyclists like they should, resulting in catastrophic motorcycle accidents across the state of New Mexico. In fact, despite what some people may think, most New Mexico motorcycle accidents are caused by the actions of reckless drivers who are not fulfilling their duty to share the road safely with motorcyclists.
