Indio Police say being alert is the key to everyone's safety on the road.
But what are the rules of the road? Who has the right of way?
According to DMV, pedestrians on all roads. You must yield to them.
Bicyclist have about the same rights as motorists.
Here's what works for valley locals.

"I wear bright colors," That is pedestrian Coloma Hall's strategy when walking near the busy Highway 111 in Cathedral City.
"I stay to the right." Cyclist Renato Perteghella rides with the flow of traffic.

Some speculate that the cause for recent accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists may be due to ideal weather conditions and more people out on the roads.
