Speeding-Related Crashes in Albuquerque

Speed limits are in place to make the roads a safer place. Unfortunately, it is entirely too common for New Mexico drivers to disobey these limits and travel at excess speeds. Over the past twenty years, speeding has been involved in more than one-third of traffic-related fatalities in the United States, with thousands dying annually in high-speed car accidents. 

Car crashes in New Mexico are caused by a variety of roadway hazards, such as poor driving, excessive speed, unsafe road conditions, poor truck maintenance, road construction, and inadequate signage. Determining liability for a crash can be difficult and more complex than simply determining fault, and injured parties are often unprepared to protect their legal rights after a catastrophic accident.
