According to the New Mexico Department of Transportation, crashes with large trucks accounted for 12.5% of all fatal crashes in the state in one recent year. Additionally, thousands of crashes occur every year that cause serious injuries. Because commercial trucks are so much larger and heavier than typical passenger vehicles, occupants in the smaller vehicle usually suffer the bulk of injuries.
