Aurora, CO (November 10, 2026) – Three people were taken to the hospital after a two-vehicle wreck on Chambers Road near Mississippi Avenue on Sunday, November 8. 

According to emergency units, one of them has life-threatening injuries, while the other two have injuries that are not considered life-threatening.

Both directions of Chambers Road were closed while investigators worked at the scene. Drivers were told to avoid the road and use other routes.

Investigators are still working to learn what led up to the crash. 

We are thinking of those hurt and we hope they recover.

What Filing Deadline Applies to Car Accident Claims in Aurora, CO?

Most injury claims from motor vehicle collisions in Colorado have to be filed within three years. That’s longer than the two-year limit for many other kinds of injury cases in the state. If a loved one died, though, a wrongful death claim generally has to be filed within two years.

However, it is important to note that shorter notice rules apply when a government vehicle or road is involved. If a city bus, a police car or a public works truck caused the harm, or a road defect played a part, Colorado generally requires a written notice of claim within 182 days. Missing that notice can end the claim entirely.

Insurance talks, medical treatment and recovery from serious injuries can take months or even years, but none of that pauses the deadline. To better understand when to file, many victims turn to a car accident lawyer to confirm which deadline applies, send any required government notice and file before time runs out.

Colorado’s filing deadlines can vary depending on each case. If you have been involved in an accident and are not sure of how much time you may have to file, our team at Beale Legal Counselors can review your timeline and explain which deadline may apply.
