§ 42-4-102 — Legislative declaration

Colorado § 42-4-102

• Jurisdiction: Colorado
• Title 42: Vehicles and
• Art.: Regulation of Vehicles and Traffic

Text

The general assembly recognizes the
many conflicts which presently exist between the state's traffic laws and many of
the municipal traffic codes, which conflicts lead to uncertainty in the movement of
traffic on the state's highways and streets. These conflicts are compounded by the
fact that today's Americans are extremely mobile and that while this state enjoys a
large influx of traffic from many areas, there is some lack of uniformity existing
between the rules of the road of this state and those of other states of the nation.
The general assembly, therefore, declares it the purpose of this article to alleviate
these conflicts and lack of uniformity by conforming, as nearly as possible, certain
of the traffic laws of this state with the recommendations of the national committee
of uniform traffic laws and ordinances as set forth in the committee's Uniform
Vehicle Code.
