\"RoadPolice road protection officers are often a Triathlon, Duathlon & Running Race Director’s biggest single expense<\/span><\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n

Having directed and volunteered at a number of running races, triathlons and tennis tournaments over the years, Broad Run, Ashburn and Leesburg bike crash lawyer Doug Landau knows that the big expense items are: Police protection, Insurance and Permits. Having local law enforcement secure dangerous intersections and road crossings can insure a safer race. The Loudoun Fairfax and Prince William sports injury lawyer has seen too many “near misses” and uncontrolled race intersections where the question was not “W<\/strong>ould<\/strong> there be a crash ?’ but rather, “When<\/strong><\/em> would a biker or runner be injured in an accident ?”<\/p>\n
