2021 Colorado Code|Title 42 - Vehicles and Traffic|Article 4 - Regulation of Vehicles and Traffic|Part 6 - Signals - Signs - Markings|§ 42-4-611. Paraplegic Persons or Persons With Disabilities - Distress Flag

  Any paraplegic person or person with a disability when in motor vehicle distress is authorized to display by the side of such person's disabled vehicle a white flag of approximately seven and one-half inches in width and thirteen inches in length, with the letter “D” thereon in red color with an irregular one-half inch red border. Said flag shall be of reflective material so as to be readily discernible under darkened conditions, and said reflective material must be submitted to and approved by the department of transportation before the same is used.    Any person desiring to use such display shall make application to the department, and the department may in its discretion issue to such person with a disability upon application a card that sets forth the applicant's name, address, and date of birth, the physical apparatus needed to operate a motor vehicle, if any, and any other pertinent facts that the department deems desirable, and in its discretion the department may issue a permit for the use of and issue to such person a display flag. Each such flag shall be numbered, and in the event of loss or destruction, a duplicate may be issued upon the payment of the sum of one dollar by such applicant. The department shall maintain a list of such applicants and persons to whom permits and flags have been issued and furnish a copy thereof to the Colorado state patrol upon request.    Any person who is not a paraplegic person or a person with a disability who uses such flag as a signal or for any other purpose is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred dollars nor more than three hundred dollars, or by imprisonment in the county jail for not less than ten days nor more than ninety days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 42 - Vehicles and Traffic|Article 4 - Regulation of Vehicles and Traffic|Part 6 - Signals - Signs - Markings|§ 42-4-612. When Signals Are Inoperative or Malfunctioning

     When a driver approaches an intersection and faces a traffic control signal that is inoperative, that remains on steady red or steady yellow during several time cycles, or that does not recognize a motorcycle that is operated by the driver, the provisions controlling entrance to a through street or highway from a stop sign or highway, as provided under section 42-4-703, apply until a police officer assumes control of traffic or until the traffic control signal resumes normal operation. (1) (a) When a driver approaches an intersection and faces a traffic control signal that is inoperative, that remains on steady red or steady yellow during several time cycles, or that does not recognize a motorcycle that is operated by the driver, the provisions controlling entrance to a through street or highway from a stop sign or highway, as provided under section 42-4-703, apply until a police officer assumes control of traffic or until the traffic control signal resumes normal operation.    If a traffic control signal at a place other than an intersection ceases to operate or malfunctions as specified in subsection (1)(a) of this section, drivers may proceed past the signal only with caution, as if the signal were flashing yellow.       Whenever a pedestrian faces a pedestrian-control signal as provided in section 42-4-802 which is inoperative or which remains on “Don't Walk” or “Wait” during several time cycles, such pedestrian shall not enter the roadway unless the pedestrian can do so safely and without interfering with any vehicular traffic.    Any person who violates any provision of this section commits a class A traffic infraction.     History. Source: L. 94: Entire title amended with relocations, p. 2346, § 1, effective January 1, 1995.

  Any person who commits a moving traffic violation in a school zone is subject to the increased penalties and surcharges imposed by section 42-4-1701 (4)(d).    For the purposes of this section, “school zone” means an area that is designated as a school zone and has appropriate signs posted indicating that the penalties and surcharges will be doubled. The state or local government having jurisdiction over the placement of traffic signs and traffic control devices in the school zone area shall designate when the area will be deemed to be a school zone for the purposes of this section. In making such designation, the state or local government shall consider when increased penalties are necessary to protect the safety of school children.    This section does not apply if the penalty and surcharge for a violation has been doubled pursuant to section 42-4-614 because such violation also occurred within a highway maintenance, repair, or construction zone.

 The driver of a vehicle intending to turn to the left within an intersection or into an alley, private road, or driveway shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle approaching from the opposite direction which is within the intersection or so close thereto as to constitute an immediate hazard. Any person who violates any provision of this section commits a class A traffic infraction.   History.

Since § 42-4-702 is similar to § 42-4-602 as it existed prior to the 1994 amending of title 42 as enacted by SB 94-1, relevant cases construing that provision have been included with the annotations to this section.   The evidence clearly disclosed negligence on the part of defendants in making left turn and failed to show any contributory negligence on the part of driver of plaintiff's car which would bar recovery. Thoen v. Pub. Serv. Co., 112 Colo. 126 , 146 P.2d 349.   Sufficient evidence of contributory negligence to take issue to jury. Where the defendant testified that no vehicle was within the intersection or so close thereto as to constitute an immediate hazard and that he was therefore entitled to the right-of-way as he proceeded to make his left turn, and where plaintiff testified that defendant turned directly in front of him and plaintiff had the right-of-way, there is evidence in the record from which the jury might find that the plaintiff was contributorily negligent, and the issue of contributory negligence should have gone to the jury.

 The driver of a vehicle about to enter or cross a roadway from any place other than another roadway shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching on the roadway to be entered or crossed. Any person who violates any provision of this section commits a class A traffic infraction.   History. Source: L. 94: Entire title amended with relocations, p. 2347, § 1, effective January 1, 1995.    Editor's note:   This section is similar to former § 42-4-604 as it existed prior to 1994, and the former § 42-4-704 was relocated to § 42-4-804 .   Cross references:   For duty to yield when entering a roadway from a driveway or alley, see § 42-4-710 .   ANNOTATION   Annotator's note. Since § 42-4-704 is similar to § 42-4-604 as it existed prior to the 1994 amending of title 42 as enacted by SB 94-1, relevant cases construing that provision have been included with the annotations to this section.   Whether one is heading into the highway, or backing into it, he is still entering the highway. Yockey Trucking Co. v. Handy, 128 Colo. 404 , 262 P.2d 930.   The duty of a driver backing his automobile into a street or roadway is clearly set forth in McBride v. Woods, 124 Colo. 384 , 238 P.2d 183 (1951); Yockey Trucking Co. v. Handy, 128 Colo. 404 , 262 P.2d 930 (1953).   The duty of one driving on a highway who arrives at an intersection of that highway and a private road or driveway is not the same duty of care as at an intersection of two highways. Curtis v. Lawley, 140 Colo. 476 , 346 P.2d 579 (1959).   And despite the statutory requirement that one traveling on a public highway has the right-of-way over one entering the highway from a private road is but a reaffirmation of the rule of the road. Curtis v. Lawley, 140 Colo. 476 , 346 P.2d 579 (1959).   Right-of-way must be used with due care. Notwithstanding the fact the operator of a vehicle over a public road has the right-of-way over a person entering thereon from a private roadway, he must use his right in a reasonable manner; in other words, it is the duty of both parties to use due care as that term is understood at common law.

  Any driver of a motor vehicle approaching a railroad crossing sign shall slow down to a speed that is reasonable and safe for the existing conditions. If required to stop for a traffic control device, flagperson, or safety before crossing the railroad grade crossing, the driver shall stop at the marked stop line, if any. If no such stop line exists, the driver shall:   Stop not less than fifteen feet nor more than fifty feet from the nearest rail of the railroad grade crossing and shall not proceed until the railroad grade can be crossed safely; or    In the event the driver would not have a reasonable view of approaching trains when stopped pursuant to paragraph (a) of this subsection (1), stop before proceeding across the railroad grade crossing at the point nearest such crossing where the driver has a reasonable view of approaching trains and not proceed until the railroad grade can be crossed safely.       No person shall drive any vehicle through, around, or under any crossing gate or barrier at a railroad crossing while such gate or barrier is closed or is being opened or closed, nor shall any pedestrian pass through, around, over, or under any crossing gate or barrier at a railroad grade crossing while such gate or barrier is closed or is being opened or closed.    Any person who violates any provision of this section commits a class A traffic infraction.     History. Source: L. 94: Entire title amended with relocations, p. 2348, § 1, effective January 1, 1995.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 42 - Vehicles and Traffic|Article 4 - Regulation of Vehicles and Traffic|Part 7 - Rights-of-Way|§ 42-4-708. Moving Heavy Equipment at Railroad Grade Crossing

  No person shall operate or move any crawler-type tractor, steam shovel, derrick, or roller or any equipment or structure having a normal operating speed of ten or less miles per hour or a vertical body or load clearance of less than nine inches above the level surface of a roadway upon or across any tracks at a railroad grade crossing without first complying with this section.    Notice of any such intended crossing shall be given to a superintendent of such railroad and a reasonable time be given to such railroad to provide proper protection at such crossing.    Before making any such crossing, the person operating or moving any such vehicle or equipment shall first stop the same not less than fifteen feet nor more than fifty feet from the nearest rail of such railroad, and while so stopped shall listen and look in both directions along such track for any approaching train and for signals indicating the approach of a train, and shall not proceed until the crossing can be made safely.    No such crossing shall be made when warning is given by automatic signal or crossing gates or a flagperson or otherwise of the immediate approach of a railroad train or car.    Subsection (3) of this section shall not apply at any railroad crossing where state or local road authorities within their respective jurisdictions have determined that trains are not operating during certain periods or seasons of the year and have erected an official sign carrying the legend “exempt”, which shall give notice when so posted that such crossing is exempt from the stopping requirement provided in this section.    Any person who violates any provision of this section commits a class B traffic infraction.     History.

Violation of this section is negligence per se. Colo. S. Ry. v. Duffy Storage Moving Co., 145 Colo. 344 , 361 P.2d 144.   Last clear chance applies. A violation of this section which would otherwise preclude a party from recovering is not conclusive if the doctrine of last clear chance applies, for then violation of the statute is not the proximate cause of the accident and a negligent plaintiff may yet recover.

 No driver shall enter an intersection or a marked crosswalk or drive onto any railroad grade crossing unless there is sufficient space on the other side of the intersection, crosswalk, or railroad grade crossing to accommodate the vehicle the driver is operating without obstructing the passage of other vehicles, pedestrians, or railroad trains, notwithstanding the indication of any traffic control signal to proceed.

  As used in this section, unless the context otherwise requires:   “Public mass transit operator” has the same meaning as in section 43-1-102 (5), C.R.S.    “Transit bus” means a bus operated by a public mass transit operator.       Drivers of vehicles in the same lane of traffic and behind a transit bus shall yield the right-of-way to the bus if:   The driver of the transit bus, after stopping to allow passengers to board or exit, is signaling an intention to enter a traffic lane; and    A yield sign as described in subsection (3) of this section is displayed and illuminated on the back of the transit bus.       The yield sign referred to in paragraph (b) of subsection (2) of this section shall:   Warn a driver of a vehicle behind the transit bus that the driver is required to yield when the bus is entering a traffic lane; and    Be illuminated when the driver of the transit bus is attempting to enter a traffic lane.
