**Brighton Police Issue Crash Alert and Winter Driving Reminder**

Brighton, CO – The Brighton Police Department has issued a crash alert for the City of Brighton. The notice advises that if individuals are involved in a crash with minor damage, no injuries, and no alcohol involved, they should exchange information with the other party and file a report online for their records at [Colorado DMV's accident report page](https://dmv.colorado.gov/report-accident).

For incidents involving injuries, hit-and-runs, impaired drivers, or uninsured motorists, residents are urged to contact the Brighton Police so that officers can respond appropriately.
