In 2007, 49% of all officers deaths were roadway incidents. An increasing issue are the officers killed and injured standing in or near the roadway. 41 states have implemented Move Over Laws to assist with this issue and departments across America should train their officers on a regular basis to give them the safest environment as possible.
Here is a training video that I highly recommend on the issue. You can obtain a free copy from the IACP.
NBC recently did a story on this issue. You can view that story here.
