Move over for Colorado State Patrol

It happens all too often, law enforcement officers who are there to ensure our safety being put in danger by reckless drivers. In 2013, seven patrol cars were totaled; in 2012 and 2011 combined there were only two. There's actually a simple solution that's already in place to fix this trend. Colorado state law says any driver approaching stationary emergency vehicles with lights flashing must get out of the lane closest to them, or at least slow down to a safe speed until you've passed the scene.
