q Place cones around response vehicles and place at least one cone downstream past the crash to allow a parking spot for the ambulance or EMS vehicle. q Always face traffic when placing or removing cones. q Increase the number of cones and the distance between cones as the speed of approaching traffic increases. q Space cones equally at least 20 feet apart. Use the striping marks as a distance reference to help with cone placement. The marks are on a 40 foot cycle. q Borrow additional cones from other responding units or request some from another S/SP unit through dispatch if needed. q Use 12 cones for the lane closure taper, which should be approximately 240 feet, and four cones along the activity area to quickly make the scene safer. q Improve traffic flow by moving the transition taper further upstream from the activity area as additional traffic controls are put in place.
Vitamin A is a family of fat-soluble compounds that play an important role in vision, bone growth, reproduction, cell division, and cell differentiation. Vitamin A is important for healthy bones.However, too much vitamin A has been linked to bone loss and an increase in the risk of hip fracture.itamin A is essential for good health. It promotes growth, the immune system, reproduction, and vision. However, recent research suggests that too much vitamin A, particularly in the form of retinol, may be bad for your bones.
Both human and animal studies show that a higher vitamin A intake interferes with bone metabolism. Specifically, excess vitamin A suppresses osteoblast (bone-building) activity, stimulates osteoclast (bone breakdown) formation, and interferes with vitamin Dâs role in calcium absorption and regulation.
