Alcohol Involvement Reported

When alcohol is a factor, Colorado law may treat the impaired driver as negligent per se under C.R.S. Section 42-4-1301. This can significantly affect liability determinations.

Hit-and-Run Reported

Leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense under C.R.S. Section 42-4-1601. Victims may still recover damages through their own uninsured motorist coverage.

T-Bone / Broadside Collision Pattern

Broadside collisions frequently involve right-of-way violations at intersections. Fault often depends on which driver had the green light or right of way.
