In memory of those lost on Hwy 285

About 15 years ago a bicylist was killed just west of Foxton Road after 285 turns from South direction to West. I do not know the name of the bicyclist.

I believe that the average number of fatalities on 285 between Morrison and Buena Vista is 30 annually.

30 a Year?? that's way too many!!

years ago there was an accident at light lane where passengers were thrown from their truck as it rolled down the embankment. i had just finished emt training. a friend, with more advanced emt training and i stopped to help. the little boy my friend worked on was alive but unconscious. she kept talking to him as she worked telling him what she was doing. i was working nearby on another family member. that young man died later. so that's another one.

The truck driver who died in the vicinity of green valley grill (I think) a couple years back.

jf - Do you mean the one at King's Valley that set the garage on fire?

Accidents with fatalities that I can remember, but unfortunately do not know the names...

Between Jubilee Trail and the Pine Feed store - a vehicle pulling a flat bed trailer. The driver lost control of the trailer, and a car coming the other way hit the trailer.

A semi truck driver rolled a semi right where IREA is.

Yes, Paca, that is the one I was thinking of.
