An Overview of Colorado’s Car Accidents Laws

Were you injured in a motor vehicle crash in Delta County? If so, your claim falls under Colorado state law. It is crucial that you have a basic understanding of the rules and regulations that will affect your rights. Here are three key things to know about the car accident laws in Colorado: 

  1. Three Year Statute of Limitations: Under Colorado state law, a personal injury claim for a car accident has to be filed within three years of the date of the crash. If you fail to act before the legal deadline, your case will be dismissed. Call a Delta car accident attorney as soon as possible after a wreck. 
  2. Liability is Based on Fault: Colorado is an at-fault motor vehicle collision state. The driver (or other parties) deemed responsible for causing an accident can be held liable for the resulting damages. 
  3. Comparative Fault Standard: Under C.R.S. § 13-21-111, Colorado uses a comparative negligence legal standard. In effect, this means that each party to a traffic collision will be held liable for their “share” of the blame.
