Are you guilty of committing any of these Colorado traffic violations?

We're All Guilty of Something, Right?

But, the Light Was Yellow

For example, I think everybody knows it's not against the law to zip through a yellow light. But, what if the light turns red while you are still in the intersection?

Here's another one that plenty of people in Grand Junction are guilty of - but rarely get busted for. The state of Colorado recommends you maintain three seconds of distance between you and the car in front of you. If it's less than three seconds, you're guilty of tailgating. The law calls it "following too closely," but, you're likely not going to get nailed unless you are in an accident.
