Why Do Head-On Collisions Occur?

Head-on collisions are also referred to as ‘front-end crashes’ or ‘frontal impact crashes’. While head-on accidents are relatively uncommon, they are incredibly dangerous. Federal highway safety officials estimate that head-on collisions make up only two percent of all car accidents, but they are responsible for more than 10 percent of roadway fatalities.

A head-on collision may be the fault of a reckless or grossly negligent driver. As an example, an intoxicated motorist might enter the wrong side of a divided highway—thereby putting innocent people at extreme risk of being involved in a head-on accident. That may occur solely because of the reckless actions of that driver. On the other hand, some head-on collisions happen, at least in part, because of poor roadway design or lack of proper safety signage.

Liability for a Head-On Accident in New Mexico

A comprehensive, thorough investigation is required after every head-on collision. If you were involved in a head-on crash, our Albuquerque auto accident attorney is ready to launch an immediate investigation—gathering and preparing all of the evidence you need to hold the responsible defendants legally accountable. New Mexico is an ‘at-fault’ auto accident jurisdiction. To prevail in a head-on collision claim, you need detailed, carefully prepared supporting evidence.

Head-On Collisions: Compensation for Injured Victims

Head-on collisions are among the most serious types of car accidents. Following a crash, you need full and fair financial compensation to cover your bills and support the people you care about.
