Albuquerque roads where crashes happen
Many serious crashes happen where I-25 and I-40 cross at the Big I interchange, and on busy arterials like Coors, Central, Montgomery, and Paseo del Norte, where heavy traffic and wide intersections drive collisions.
New Mexico deadlines and where a claim is filed
Injury cases here are generally handled through the Second Judicial District Court in Bernalillo County. New Mexico generally gives you three years to file an injury claim — longer than many states — but a much shorter notice deadline, often about 90 days, applies when a public entity is involved. New Mexico follows a pure comparative-fault rule.
