Speeding is one of the deadliest driver behaviors. It is responsible for thousands of serious and fatal automobile accidents each year. Driving at a speed that is not safe for the conditions of the weather, road or traffic increases the odds of the driver losing control of the vehicle and causing harm to other people. If you get injured in an accident involving a speeding driver, find out how an attorney can help you seek fair financial compensation.
Speeding is consistently one of the top factors involved in fatal traffic accidents in the United States. In 2022, the National Safety Council reported that almost one-third (29 percent) of traffic accident fatalities were caused by speeding, taking the lives of 12,151 victims. Statistics show that male drivers – especially young male drivers in the 15 to 24 age group – are more likely to engage in speeding than female drivers.
Colorado’s speed-related car accident statistics are similar to national data. Speeding is consistently identified as a top contributing factor to fatal accidents in the state, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation. Statistics from 2020 show a total of 287 speeding-related traffic deaths in Colorado – a 20 percent increase from 2019. The majority of these collisions (40 percent) took place on rural roads.
No Fees Unless We Win
Drivers are required by law to maintain safe and reasonable speeds. They must keep a vehicle at or below posted speed limits and reduce their speeds in dangerous conditions, such as bad weather. Driving too fast for the circumstances, even without exceeding the speed limit, constitutes speeding. Speeding interferes with a driver’s ability to safely control a motor vehicle and react to changing roadway situations in time to prevent a crash.
When a vehicle is traveling at an unsafe speed, there is greater potential for a loss of vehicle control. The driver may veer off the road and crash into another driver or a fixed object, for example. It also increases the distance needed to bring a vehicle to a stop. Finally, increased speed increases the force and velocity of the collision, which enhances the damage inflicted and the injuries suffered by those involved.
Client Reviews
“Sam and his team worked to make sure every aspect of my case was taken care of and that I was informed the whole way through. I know nothing about law or how the process works, so he explained everything to me in a way that was easy for us non-lawyers to understand. I can’t recommend them enough and everything they helped me with over the course of my 15 month case. I’d highly recommend!”

“Sam Cannon is what you want in a lawyer. I’ve used them a couple of times now and each time I call, Sam’s always shown a level of dedication that’s beyond impressive. In fact, he often seems to be more passionate about my case than I was, which was refreshing because it’s rare to see that kind of care these days.
