Pedestrians Don't Have Armor," the first week of No- vember, said Theron Hurlbert, with the Tehama County Health Services Agency's Public Health Division. Hurlbert dressed as "Pete Walker," an everyday pedestrian in a full suit of car armor, who visited the school and acted as the crossing guard at the school. He walked students across the street as he spoke to them about pedestrian safety and walking across streets safely.
