Aggressive Driving in Colorado Springs
Were You Injured by an Aggressive Driver?
Over half of the motorists who responded to a survey by the National Highway Traffic Administration in 1997 admitted to engaging in aggressive driving behaviors. The general consensus is that such behaviors have only increased in prevalence in the last decade and a half. Aggressive driving is a traffic violation and can be a precursor to road rage, which is a criminal offense. Additionally, road rage and other forms of aggressive driving are a common cause of car accidents and related injuries.
Aggressive drivers may do the following:
- Cut other drivers off
- Drive at speeds over the posted speed limits
- Honk their horns
- Make aggressive gestures at other motorists
- Use the shoulder to pass
- Weave in and out of traffic
If you are on the road and witness aggressive driving, then you are encouraged throughout the state to dial *277 (CSP) and report the vehicle. This program, implemented by the Colorado State Patrol in 1998, plays a crucial role in curbing such actions before they escalate and lead to an accident. It is also important to your safety that you not respond to aggressive drivers in kind. Give the aggressive driver plenty of space and avoid eye contact, so as to avoid making matters worse.

“Friends recommended and pushed me to see Bill. I had no witnesses and a less than accurate person who caused the collision, Explained the kind of medical issues I would have without the medical attention I was in need of. Very appreciative. Have been recommending him to other potential clients ever since.”- E.M.

“This review is late. It was posted at another location and I just realized that it need to be here. From my review immediately after my case was resolved in January 2020. If you are reading this you have, or know someone, who has been through something terrible, unexpected and now you are wondering what to do. And if you do research you will find the "TV" guys are not what you want. For me it was a car accident that was not my fault. The at fault party was cited for careless driving. That was a Thursday. The following Monday I was in Ted's office. My injuries involved my head (9 staples from impacting the roll bar in my Jeep), my neck and back. I also had issues with not hearing things properly, inability to find the right words and forgetfulness. Ted assured me that he would be able to help me with treatment and also with compensation. The doctors that he sent me to were cordial, friendly and just nice people. His office is near downtown Colorado Springs and you will always see him and not someone else. In the beginning he told me what he was going to do and how much he was going to fight for, with an emphasis on me getting better. In the end that is exactly what happened. I received the proper treatment and my case was resolved with a 225K settlement. He was paid, the doctors that treated me were paid and I was able to get a new start. I highly recommend Ted.”- Brian H

It was so nice to not have to worry about all of the paper work that goes on with this... if we ever (knock on wood that we don’t) get in an accident again he will be the first person we call... he knows what he is doing and also has a medical background which was amazing! Thank you Ted for everything!”- Jasmine
