Fort Collins has an extremely active population, like the rest of Colorado. Often times residents elect to walk or bike somewhere over driving, it is just what we do. Whether it is the health or environmental benefits, more and more people are electing to walk from location to location whenever possible. Although walking may seem like a much safer alternative to driving or even riding a bicycle, statistics show otherwise. The National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA) recorded for 2013 that of all transportation fatalities, 14% of them were pedestrians.
Driver Responsibility
In all scenarios, our Fort Collins personal injury team at Haltzman Law Firm believes that it is the financial and civil responsibility of commercial drivers and regular everyday drivers alike to prioritize pedestrian safety, as they are much more susceptible to traumatic injuries than those seat belted in motor vehicles.
If you or your loved one suffered fatal, serious or even moderate injuries that affect your everyday life as a pedestrian in Colorado, our Fort Collins accident attorneys want to represent you and secure the compensation you deserve.
Bicycle & Vehicle Collisions
Bicyclists face similar risks on the roads in Northern Colorado and can be vulnerable to inattentive drivers, resulting in horrific personal injury. Fort Collins is the home to New Belgium Brewery who puts on Tour De Fat a bicycling event that hosts tens of thousands of cyclists in September. Simply put, Fort Collins residents love their bikes. Unfortunately, SUV’s and most passenger vehicles can weigh in excess of two hundred times of that of a bike, which can spell disaster for a cyclist in even a low speed collision. Haltzman Law Firm has the legal knowledge to protect your rights if you are involved in a bike collision with a multi-ton vehicle. Call us now at (970) 692-3440.
