No you can't. If you get jammed up it would depend on which Sheriff's jurisdiction you in.
Fyi, most sheriff departments or pds will try to help you with information if you call and ask.
I have called neighboring states state patrol offices for input when my wife would be driving through without me.
The information is freely given and can keep you out of trouble

As far as colorado it would appear the way it is written sections 2(1), 2(v) would likely apply in court. It may not prevent arrest however. Again i would seek input from leo offices before traveling
