People walk everywhere in Greeley — across 10th Street, 8th Avenue, and 23rd Avenue, near schools and campuses, and through busy parking lots. With agricultural freight and DJ Basin oilfield traffic, drivers in Weld County too often fail to yield, and a pedestrian struck by a vehicle almost always comes away with the more serious injuries.
Drivers generally must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and exercise care everywhere else. If a driver hit you or a family member, a participating Colorado law firm may review the crash and explain your options.
