PLR 19-030 - Pedestrian Mishap Claims One Soldier's Life

A Major in the U.S. Army Reserve Command died in a pedestrian mishap 7 February 2019 in Sandy, Utah, at 1240 local. The Soldier was traversing a marked crosswalk when he was struck by a vehicle traveling more than 60 mph.

ENGAGEMENT TIPS:

  • Keep alert at all times; don’t be distracted by electronic devices that take your eyes (and ears) off the road.

  • Never assume a driver sees you just because you are using a crosswalk. Look for cars in all directions, including those turning left or right, and make eye contact with drivers as they approach to make sure you are seen.

  • Be visible at all times. Wear bright clothing during the day, and wear reflective materials or use a flashlight at night.
