Intersection Collisions in New Mexico

An intersection can be a hotspot for a catastrophic collision. According to the Federal Highway Administration, there are more than 2.5 million intersection collisions reported each year in the United States, making up the second-largest crash category in the country. An estimated 40% of reported crashes take place at intersections, along with one-quarter of fatal traffic accidents. 

In the state of New Mexico, plaintiffs injured in a vehicle collision have a right to be fully compensated for injuries resulting from the actions of a negligent party. When calculating the extent of a victim’s damages, many different factors are taken into consideration, including the suffering endured by the victim and the extent of their financial damages resulting from a New Mexico car accident.
