Traffic Safety in Fort Collins

In 2011, Allstate Insurance Company released its seventh annual Allstate America’s Best Drivers Report™. Fort Collins topped the list for the second year in a row, as America’s safest drivers. Thank you to the many citizens who have contributed to this safe driving record. It once again demonstrates another reason why Fort Collins is a great place to live, work and play.

While the traffic safety record in Fort Collins is good compared to other communities, we still have room for improvement. In 2010 there were more than 3,500 reported traffic crashes in our city. With three lives lost, more than 700 people injured and an economic impact estimated at about $93 million, Fort Collins has plenty of reasons to not rest on our laurels.
