Colorado Car Accidents
Car accidents remain a major source of serious injuries across Colorado, particularly in high-traffic areas like Denver, Aurora, and Colorado Springs. With rapid growth and heavier congestion on the roads, the risks for motorists, passengers, and pedestrians continue to rise. Recent data shows that more than 3,800 people in Colorado have suffered severe crash-related injuries in recent years—an alarming reminder of how quickly lives can change on the road.
The consequences of a crash extend far beyond immediate injuries. Victims often find themselves coping with long-term disabilities, emotional distress, and the financial weight of medical bills, rehabilitation, and lost income. A single reckless act—such as distracted driving or speeding—can create ripple effects that last a lifetime.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), human error plays a role in over 90% of all traffic collisions. In Colorado, some of the most common causes include distracted driving tied to cell phone use, excessive speed, impairment, fatigue, and disregard for traffic signals.
Adding to these dangers, Colorado’s unique climate and terrain create their own hazards. Winter storms can bring icy roads and limited visibility, while steep mountain passes and crowded highways like I-25, I-70, and US-36 frequently see high-impact collisions.
