Where to find Colorado traffic safety data

Fatal Crash Data Dashboard

The Fatal Crash Data Dashboard contains the official and most current number of vehicle occupants and non-motorists killed in crashes involving a motor vehicle along Colorado public roadways. It can be used to find traffic fatalities by month, county, city, traffic unit type, age and more.

DUI and Click It or Ticket Enforcement Period Portal

CDOT’s DUI and Click It or Ticket Enforcement Period Portal contains the number of DUI arrests and seat belt citations issued by participating law enforcement agencies during heightened enforcement throughout the year. For example, it can be used to track arrests during the Labor Day DUI enforcement period and July Wave Click It or Ticket enforcement period.

Problem ID Report

CDOT’s 2023 Problem Identification Report describes motor vehicle crash characteristics for crashes that occurred in Colorado in calendar year 2021. Specifically, this report presents key traffic safety statistics identified by the CDOT and injury epidemiologists at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), as well as core performance measures defined by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). CDOT, law enforcement agencies, local government agencies, nonprofit organizations and public health professionals utilize this document to inform prevention strategies intended to reduce the number and severity of motor vehicle crashes in Colorado.
