Right-Of-Way Disputes At Northglenn Intersections: How We Prove Fault
McCormick & Murphy are Northglenn intersection accident lawyers for people hurt in Northglenn. We get the Northglenn Police Department report, the HCA HealthONE North Suburban Medical Center records, and file in Adams County Justice Center.
Intersection crashes almost always come down to one question: who had the right of way. Both drivers often insist the light was green or the other car ran the stop sign. That conflict is exactly why intersection claims require careful fact development rather than taking either driver's word for it.
We look at signal phasing, the physical layout of the intersection, and how the vehicles came to rest. Damage patterns on each car often tell us more about speed and direction of travel than either driver's memory does. Turning movements, protected versus permissive left turns, and crosswalk timing all factor into who bears responsibility.
Colorado allows comparative negligence, meaning fault can be split between drivers. Insurance companies at intersections frequently try to assign most or all of the blame to the other driver, so our job is to build a record that supports your version of events with evidence, not just your statement against theirs.
Signal Timing, Traffic Camera, And Vehicle Damage Evidence We Gather Fast
Signal timing records can establish which direction had the green light at the moment of impact. Traffic cameras near 104th Avenue, 120th Avenue, and Washington Street, along with nearby business security footage, sometimes capture the collision or the moments leading up to it. Lane markings and any sight obstructions at the corner help explain why a driver may not have seen cross traffic or a turning vehicle.
Vehicle damage location and severity, along with event data recorders in newer cars, can confirm speed and braking before impact. Witness accounts from other drivers or pedestrians waiting at the intersection add another layer of detail. We work to gather this evidence while it's still available, since video footage in particular is often overwritten or deleted quickly.
- Photos of the intersection, signal heads, stop signs, and both vehicles' final positions
- Contact information for any witnesses, including pedestrians near the crosswalk
- The police report number and responding officer's name from Northglenn Police Department
- Your own account of the signal color or right-of-way situation, written down soon after the crash
- Medical records from any treatment, including care at HCA HealthONE North Suburban Medical Center

Insurance Says The Other Driver Had The Green Light Too — Northglenn Claim Questions
The other driver says the light was green for them too. Now what?
This is common in intersection disputes, which is why we focus on objective evidence rather than relying on conflicting statements. Signal timing data, video footage, and vehicle damage patterns often resolve these disagreements more reliably than either driver's memory.
What if I was partially at fault for the intersection crash?
Colorado allows for shared fault between drivers, and you may still recover damages even if you bear some responsibility. The amount you can recover depends on how fault is allocated, so it's worth discussing the specifics of your crash with us.
Is there traffic camera footage of my accident?
It depends on the intersection and whether cameras or nearby business security systems captured the area. Footage is often deleted or overwritten quickly, so we move fast to identify and request any available video.
I was turning left when the crash happened. Does that make it automatically my fault?
Not necessarily. Left-turn crashes depend on signal type, whether the turning driver had a protected arrow, and whether the oncoming driver was speeding or ran a stale yellow light. Each of these facts affects how fault is assigned.
Do I need a police report from Northglenn Police Department?
A police report is helpful because it documents the scene, statements, and officer observations close to the time of the crash. We also gather additional evidence beyond the report, since intersection cases often need more detail than a report alone provides.
