    I wonder how one goes about getting footage from traffic cameras to help with accident claims? Since most major intersections have several cameras these days.....

    Those cameras are live feed and do not record.

    What would be the purpose of recording for CDOT? Storage would be a waste of taxpayer funding. All traffic operations is chatged with is managing live traffic.

    But, on another point, do you really want to live with the government recording your movement? Sounds like China...

    What's the point of having cameras at intersections then, if they don't record anything? We supposed to believe there's people watching hundreds, maybe thousands of monitors 24x7, ready to call something in immediately?

    FWIW - If you get hit near an RTD bus (and the other driver lies about the circumstances) you may be luckily enough to get their video if you know the nearest stop, time, bus #…..

    That's because the bus has their own recording and storage devices. Can you imagine the storage requirements needed to keep the video feed on all the intersection cameras, just in the metro area?

    Glad you got an update. I'm betting the owner of the vehicle can't provide proof of sale and that combined with the fact the policy was still active forced him to accept liability.

    When you sell a vehicle, first you remove and retain the plates registered to you... next, you immediately go online and remove that vehicle from your insurance.

    Apparently the vehicle owner did neither, lied about selling it, and allowed an unauthorized person to operate same. That makes him, and his insurance provider, 100% liable. Since it was a hit & run with a police report filed, that case is a slam dunk.
