Your Vest
Won’t Stop This Bullet, a 14-minute video produced by the

threat that police officers, emergency workers and highway
construction crews face on a daily basis: Unpredictable drivers.
The video
is dedicated to the more than 700 law enforcement officers who
have died during traffic incidents in the past ten years,
including four Missouri State Highway Patrol Troopers who have
been killed since 2001.
