Intersection Collisions in New Mexico 

Roadway safety hinges upon the rules governing the right of way. Which driver has the right to continue through an intersection comes up a lot, and many drivers will fail to yield when they should. An estimated 22% of accidents at roadway crossings involve left-hand turns, and there are more than 2.5 million intersection collisions reported annually in the United States, making up an estimated 40% of reported 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. Considering all these factors can be overwhelming for those trying their best to recover after a car accident.
