1Opinion of the CourtJustice Mullarkey

We granted certiorari and consolidated these three cases to determine which stat*1302ute of limitations applies to personal injury negligence actions arising from motor vehicle accidents and when the statute of limitations begins to run. In all three cases, the court of appeals held that the three-year statute of limitations under section 13-80-101(1)©, 6A C.R.S. (1987), is applicable to such cases, declining to reach the second issue. We now affirm the court of appeals’ decisions in light of Jones v. Cox, 828 P.2d 218 (Colo.1992).
