High-Speed Collisions in New Mexico
When drivers choose to speed, everyone is more likely to sustain injuries in the event of a crash. Speeding drivers have a reduced ability to manage their vehicles and come to a stop in time to prevent a serious collision. Tens of thousands of Americans perish in high-speed collisions each year, and during the previous 20 years, speeding has been linked to almost one-third of all road fatalities in the nation. In 2020, around one-third of all traffic fatalities in New Mexico were caused by excessive speeding.
