"In the case of the cop I guess they figure that he will have sense enough not to step out in front of a speeding car"
My commute takes into a major city. Comming in I pass through several smaller ajoining cities. They tend to use the interstate as the primary funder of city operations. I have seen many, many of the officers step right out in front of a car doing 65-70mph. Have seen one get hit and one that caused a 4 car accident as the offender swerved to miss him. Normally I would say the offener was the issue but usally you don"t even see the officer until you are passing him. They tend to park behind large objects and come out of no where. Personally I chalk it up to training. State Troopers do not seem to have this problem.
As for OSHA and the vest issue. While OSHA has done some good things, just like any empowered gov agency they have the ability to push some really stupid crap. I seriously doubt any officer would want to be forced to wear a bright orange/green vest as drug runners start shooting at them after a simple traffic stop.......
