UPDATE: As of 12/4/23 at 03:00AM, CSPD is no longer on Crash/Accident alert.
Starting at 10:00 AM on Sunday, December 03, 2023, the Colorado Springs Police Department will be on Crash Alert Status due to weather and road conditions. All traffic accidents may be cold reported or reported online with the following criteria: • No one died or was hurt, and; • There were no drugs or alcohol involved, and; • The wreck did not damage public property (e.g., road sign, utility pole, etc.), and; • All drivers in the accident are still there and everyone agrees to cold report, and; • All involved parties have vehicle and insurance information to exchange.
The above criteria apply even if the involved vehicle(s) will require a tow truck. For complete information regarding accident alert status and online accident reporting, please go to https://coloradosprings.gov/police-department/page/report-minor-traffic-accident . Cold traffic accident report forms (to be handwritten) are also available at any police department substations. To report a crash online, plus use the Colorado website https://dmv.colorado.gov/report-accident.
Everyone is reminded to take appropriate steps to avoid being involved in a traffic accident during adverse weather and road conditions. Before heading out, all drivers should check road and travel conditions and expect to take additional time to arrive at their destination. Due to the increased distance needed to stop on icy and slick roads, slower driving speeds and increased following distance between cars is highly recommended. Please plan your route based on streets which are the least hazardous during winter conditions. As always, please make sure you are clearing all windows of snow and ice prior to driving – visibility is significantly reduced during storm conditions. If your car does not have adequate snow tires, please consider delaying your travel until better conditions exist.
