Bachus & Schanker - DUI Accident ClaimsDrug Involvement Reported
Driving under the influence of drugs, including marijuana, is prohibited under C.R.S. Section 42-4-1301(1)(f). Impairment can establish fault in civil claims.

Colorado drivers are required to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks under C.R.S. Section 42-4-802. Pedestrian crash victims may face unique insurance complexities.

If you are 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Colorado is generally 3 years from the date of the accident.
