Written by Bradley Smith
Denver, CO (June 28, 2025) — Authorities with the Denver Police Department (DPD) are investigating a traffic collision involving a motorist and a bicyclist that occurred Saturday afternoon, June 28, in the city’s Golden Triangle neighborhood.
The crash was reported just after 1:00 p.m. at the intersection of West 11th Avenue and Acoma Street, a busy area near downtown that sees frequent pedestrian and bike traffic.
Police confirmed that at least one person — the bicyclist — sustained injuries as a result of the crash. The extent of the injuries has not been publicly disclosed, and it remains unclear whether the individual was transported to a hospital.
Motorists were advised to avoid the area while investigators responded to the scene and worked to determine the cause of the collision. No information has been released about potential citations or charges, and the identities of those involved have not been made public.
This incident remains under investigation by the Denver Police Department. Anyone who witnessed the crash or has relevant information is encouraged to contact DPD.
We hope the wounded individuals make a swift recovery.
Colorado Car Accidents
Each year, Denver sees a troubling number of bicycle-related injuries—part of a larger statewide trend that results in roughly 1,000 cyclist injuries annually in Colorado. Tragically, some of these accidents turn fatal. Unlike motorists, bicyclists have little protection in a crash, making even minor collisions potentially devastating.
Bicycle crashes in Denver often lead to severe injuries such as fractures, head trauma, and spinal damage. These injuries don’t just cause physical pain—they often come with steep medical bills, emotional stress, and extended time away from work. When a crash is caused by a careless or inattentive driver, injured cyclists deserve answers—and legal support.
One of the leading causes of serious bicycle accidents is driver inattention. Failing to check blind spots, yield at intersections, or make eye contact with a cyclist can lead to life-altering consequences. In a busy city like Denver, where bikes and cars frequently share the road, drivers must remain alert and cautious at all times.
