Statute of Limitations
New Mexico has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury from truck accidents (NMSA § 37-1-8). New Mexico follows pure comparative fault — recovery available regardless of plaintiff's fault percentage. Claims against the New Mexico DOT or state entities require filing of a Notice of Claim within 90 days under the New Mexico Tort Claims Act (NMSA § 41-4-16).
