roadside safety
Shoulder emergency protocols
Roadside safety refers to measures, practices, and conditions that protect people who are stopped or working alongside a road.
This includes precautions taken by motorists with disabled vehicles, emergency responders, construction crews, and anyone else exposed to passing traffic.
Key elements involve high-visibility clothing, warning triangles, flares, proper vehicle positioning, and maintaining awareness of traffic.
Roadside safety protocols require workers to wear reflective vests at all times.
