Two California Officers Collide In Intersection: One Dies

Note:  In our Drive To Survive Seminars, we speak specifically about the dangers of intersections & how that is increased when we are responding to a call.  Below we see yet another tragedy involving intersections.  Research tells us that when officers go to work, they are more at risk when they drive through intersections than any other call type.  As you pray for this officer, his family and community, we urge you to take every precaution you can while behind the wheel.
