We will give updates on crashes we hear around the Albuquerque area. We’ll include the time and location of each incident and continue updating the list as new crash reports come in from across the Albuquerque metro area.
As a rule of thumb, most crashes are cleaned up within a hour or less. If it is a critical or fatal incident it will take up to 4 hours for the crash to be investigated. Below you will find resources of Twitter accounts for law enforcement agencies in the ABQ metro and NM DOT Cameras. Drive safe and stay safe.
