Writer: Onus of responsibility, vehicles v pedestrian, is on driver Statute puts onus of responsibility on driver, says writer who has had narrow escapes on Columbia's Public Square cites Kentucky Statute protecting pedestrians which is much broader than many are aware By 'Narrow Escapes on the Square' Personal commentary Paragraph four of section 189.570 of the KRS (Kentucky Revised Statutes) addresses, in plain, simple, language, the vehicle v pedestrian situation on Columbia's Square: "(4) When traffic control signals are not in place or in operation the operator of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way, slowing down or stopping if need be to so yield, to a pedestrian crossing the roadway upon which the vehicle is traveling, or when the pedestrian is approaching so closely from the opposite half of the roadway as to be in danger."Certainly, it is incumbent upon pedestrians to be alert, attentive, and vigilant when crossing a street, but when / where crosswalks exist, Kentucky law puts the onus of responsibility squarely on the driver. - Narrow escapes on the Square Comments re article 91806 Joyce Coomer Puts onus of responsibility on pedestrians 2017-07-25 14:54:45 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Commentary

Chris Cato: Thanks to Sheriff Moss, ACSO for returned wallet Chris S Cato writes: A special thanks to Sheriff Harrison Moss for the safe return of my lost Wallet. I am not sure yet of the details of how it was found or who actually found it. I only know that I became aware that it was no longer in my possession after fueling up at Five-Star in Campbellsville and arriving in Columbia twenty minutes later. I assume I must have left it on the trunk or on top of the car. Since all I know at this point is that it was discovered on the side of North 55. Thanks again to Sheriff Moss and anyone else that contributed to its safe return. It certainly saved me a lot of hassle and heartache, by not having to replace it and it's contents.
