Reporting Cold Accidents with CSPD
As the winter season arrives in Southern Colorado, the frequency of accidents tends to rise due to the icy roads. It is important for drivers to be cautious and prepare accordingly when reporting accidents during cold weather. Before starting a journey, drivers should always check road conditions, allowing extra travel time to avoid rushing and speeding. When involved in a cold-weather accident, drivers should exchange insurance information if there are no fatalities, injuries, drugs, or alcohol involved, and each driver has a valid license, registration, and insurance. To report such accidents, drivers can fill out a counter report at any CSPD substation or online through the department's website. While the cold report forms are available at CSPD substations, they must be submitted to the Colorado Motor Vehicle Division, hence digital submission might be more convenient. CSPD also advises clearing snow and ice obstructing visibility from vehicles and using safer routes on streets and roads during snowy conditions.
