Oh man. That's not good at all.

hmm thats not good

Knowing how things go with DT the charges will be dropped.
His life has really taken a dive!
Youd think hed be the one that got injured.


AlllhallllRighty then.
(I hope everything is ok. Id still like to see him become a bronco again and retire as one of us!

Confusing story - a charge of vehicular assault doesn't require intent to injure? Seems like if this was a DUI case that would have been reported already.

Right? I was confused by that as well. Maybe the charge only needs to include reckless driving/behavior. I have no idea.

Apparently you can be charged with vehicular assault if they think you were driving recklessly and caused serious injury to someone. So either some one in the car is pissed, and hurt bad and wants DT to pay or the cops are pissed he was speeding and hurt someone.....

Thomas, 31, turned himself into police on Wednesday and is being held for investigation of vehicular assault, driving without insurance and reckless driving, according to jail records.

According to an arrest affidavit, Thomas was driving with two passengers in his car on Auraria Parkway near 12th Street in the early morning hours of Feb. 16 when he lost control of the vehicle, causing it to roll.

Thomas was driving at about 70 miles per hour in a 30 mph zone when we drove off the left side of the road, over a raised median and into the northbound lanes of 12th before hitting another median, sending the car airborne, the affidavit states.

He's being held without bail. This story likely isn't going to get any better for DT.

Oh my word. How does someone with an NFL level net worth drive without insurance?

This is going to be financially devastating to DT. Unbelievable.

The financial implications are worse than the criminal ones.

My first thoughts as well.

Are you legally required to carry auto insurance in CO?

Is there a state where you’re not?

Insurance is required in all states. Each state differs in their minimum required coverage.
