Motorcycle Accidents in Albuquerque

Many New Mexico residents enjoy riding motorcycles, and the state has a lot to offer all kinds of riders. Unfortunately, motorcyclists are more than aware of how exposed they are while riding a bike. Thousands of riders are killed annually in traffic accidents, and nearly 80% of motorcycle collisions end in death or serious injury according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. 

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.
