A Parker widow turned street safety advocate is taking her fight to the Colorado State Capitol this week. On Wednesday, she plans to lobby for changes to state law, including stricter penalties for careless driving.
“My husband, Chuck, went on an early morning bike ride the morning of July 4 in 2019, and he never made it home,” said Teri Vogel.
In the five-and-a-half years since Vogel’s husband was killed in a hit-and-run, she has not stopped fighting for change.
“We were determined to see a greater good come from such a preventable and senseless death,” Vogel said.
