Colorado Car Accidents
Colorado’s roads—from the bustling streets of Denver to scenic mountain highways—attract thousands of motorcyclists each year. But with the freedom of riding comes heightened risk. Motorcycle crashes can result in life-altering injuries, and Colorado has seen a rise in serious motorcycle accidents on high-traffic routes like I-25, Colfax Avenue, and Speer Boulevard, as well as on suburban and rural roads.
Many motorcycle crashes are preventable. Careless behaviors—such as distracted driving, speeding, failing to yield, or driving under the influence—are leading causes of these collisions. Motorcycle riders are particularly vulnerable, and injuries can range from broken bones and road rash to traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, and lasting emotional trauma. Recovery is often long and challenging, with mounting medical bills, missed work, and daily limitations adding to the stress.
