Right-Of-Way Fault At U.S. Highway 34, U.S. Highway 85, 10th Street, And 47th Avenue
McCormick & Murphy are Greeley intersection accident lawyers for people hurt in Greeley. We get the Greeley Police Department and Weld County Sheriff’s Office report, the Banner North Colorado Medical Center records, and file in Weld County Combined Courts.
Intersection crashes often come down to two drivers with opposite stories: each one says the light was green or the other car ran the stop sign. Insurance adjusters know this, and they will lean on the version that favors their driver unless we put together a clear, evidence-backed account of what actually happened.
Our job is to reconstruct the few seconds before impact. That means figuring out signal phasing, who had the right of way, how fast each vehicle was moving, and whether anything blocked a driver's view. At intersections along busy corridors like U.S. Highway 34, U.S. Highway 85, 10th Street, and 47th Avenue, these details can shift depending on traffic volume, turn lanes, and visibility at the time of the crash.
Once we understand the sequence of events, we can show how the other driver's actions, whether running a signal, failing to yield on a turn, or misjudging a gap in traffic, caused your injuries. That foundation is what supports a fair claim against the at-fault driver's insurer.
Signal Phasing, Traffic-Camera Footage, And Vehicle Damage We Preserve In Greeley
Because intersection crashes hinge on timing and positioning, we move quickly to gather signal phasing records, traffic-camera footage, and video from nearby businesses that may have captured the collision. Lane markings, skid marks, and the final resting position of the vehicles help confirm each driver's path and speed.
We also look at vehicle damage patterns, which often reveal the angle and force of impact, along with event data recorder information from newer vehicles. Witness accounts matter too, especially from drivers or pedestrians who had a clear view of the intersection. Sight obstructions like parked trucks, overgrown landscaping, or signage can also explain why a driver didn't see another vehicle in time.
- Report the crash to Greeley Police Department or the Weld County Sheriff's Office
- Photograph the intersection, signals, signage, and vehicle positions
- Get contact information from any witnesses at the scene
- Seek medical evaluation, including at Banner North Colorado Medical Center if needed
- Avoid discussing fault with the other driver or their insurer before speaking with us
Next Steps: Pulling Camera Footage, Signal Timing, And Witness Statements In Greeley
Greeley's intersections see a steady mix of local traffic, commuters, and drivers passing through on U.S. Highway 34 and U.S. Highway 85. Busy crossings along 10th Street and 47th Avenue bring together turning vehicles, pedestrians, and through traffic, which creates the kind of split-second decisions that often lead to disputed liability.
We also represent clients injured in intersection crashes in Evans, Windsor, Milliken, Fort Collins, and Loveland. When a claim requires formal action, we're prepared to file in Weld County Combined Courts, and we coordinate with local police reports and medical records from providers like Banner North Colorado Medical Center to build your case.

Who Pays After A Greeley Intersection Crash? Insurance Claim Questions Answered
Who is usually at fault in an intersection accident?
Fault depends on who had the right of way, signal status, and each driver's movements leading up to the crash. We review available evidence like signal phasing, video, and witness accounts to determine which driver failed to yield or ran a signal.
What if the other driver claims I ran the light?
This is common in intersection cases, which is why objective evidence matters so much. Traffic-camera footage, business surveillance, event data, and witness statements can help establish what actually happened regardless of what the other driver claims.
Does it matter if the intersection had a stop sign instead of a signal?
Yes. Uncontrolled or stop-sign intersections often involve different right-of-way rules than signaled ones, and fault analysis shifts accordingly. We look at sight lines, stopping patterns, and vehicle positioning to understand how the crash occurred.
What if I was turning left when the crash happened?
Left-turn crashes often involve disputes over who had the right of way and whether the turning driver had a clear gap in traffic. Evidence like vehicle damage patterns and witness accounts can clarify whether the turning driver misjudged the situation or another vehicle was speeding or ran the signal.
How much does it cost to get help with my intersection accident claim?
We offer a free consultation, and there's no attorney fee unless we recover money for you. You can discuss your crash with us before deciding how to move forward.
