Safety should be the focus of New Mexico traffic laws
The piece rails at lax enforcement and argues for safety as the basis of traffic rules. It recounts Napolitano's 2008 use of speed vans and fines of 200, noting insurance skips and negligible safety emphasis. It praises Albuquerque and Santa Fe for active enforcement with conspicuous speed vans and posted speed zones, arguing this deters violations more than traditional measures.
