Pedestrian injury

31 Oct

Nevada Appeal article “Toddler, 3, riding in stroller injured after being hit by car” on 2009-10-31. This is a Halloween related crash at the intersection of College Pkwy and Northgate Ln. The reason I have started to post bicycle and pedestrian crashes on the blog is that we really have no good data about how risky or safe Carson City is for these two transportation modes. There is a bit of data on crashes and fatalities on the Office of Traffic Safety website, at http://ots.state.nv.us/OTS_FARS.shtml, but this is very general information without details and without geographic information.
