During a press conference Monday, the Colorado Department of Transportation announced 745 people were killed on Colorado roadways, a 57% increase from a decade ago. A record number of pedestrians and motorcyclists were also killed.

“Roads are not getting smaller, they're not getting slower, and they're not getting less complicated. They're getting bigger, faster, and we're getting more cars,” Dinwiddie said. “The laws are constantly changing. And when you think about it, that means the majority of people out on our roads learn something that's probably different than the way it's supposed to be done now.

McKinley, meanwhile, points out that other career courses have much higher standards in order for the professional to obtain a license, even though they are not nearly as dangerous as driving. “Every single year since 2017, our fatalities have increased year after year after year. We have to start looking at how we make our roads safer,” Winter said.
