  "More than 200 law envorceent officers died due to struck-by incidents from 2005-2019 (24% of motor vehicle-related officer deaths). You can lower your risk of being struck by a passing vehicle while outside the patrol vehicle. 1. Maintain situational awareness, keep your head on a swivel, work within traffic control zone, avoid the gap between vehicles, don't turn your back to traffic, and always have an escape plan. 2. Wear you ANSI-approved tearaway high visibility safety vest any time you are exposed to vehicle traffic or working a crash scene. 3. Follow your agency's standard operating procedures (SOPs) on temporary traffic control zones. 4. Understand the incident command structure and work collaboratively with other responders." - NIOSHTIC-2
