At HAAS Alert, we understand the importance of keeping first responders safe on the road. Every day, they put themselves in harm's way to provide critical care and assistance to those in need. Unfortunately, the risks they face on the road are significant as vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of death and injury among first responders. To raise awareness of these risks, HAAS Alert compiles a monthly news roundup of struck-by incidents. These incidents highlight the dangers that first responders face and the critical need for measures to improve their safety.
