Speeding-Related Crashes in Albuquerque

When you exceed the speed limit, you are putting yourself and others on the road in danger of being involved in a serious collision. Speeding has been a factor in nearly one-third of reported roadway fatalities over the past twenty years. In 2018, there were 9,378 confirmed fatalities attributable to speeding drivers. That means nearly 25 people were killed daily in high-speed accidents that year. 

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.
