Police Safety Vest for Traffic Control and Roadside Response
This high-visibility police safety vest helps identify law-enforcement personnel during traffic direction, roadside response, incident management, and other public-safety work. Reflective trim improves recognition in low-light conditions, while the 5-point breakaway design is intended to release at multiple connection points if the vest is caught or pulled.
An adjustable fit supports layering over uniforms and seasonal clothing. Select the size that provides comfortable coverage without limiting movement or access to duty equipment.

Police Safety Vest FAQ
What does 5-point breakaway mean?
A 5-point breakaway vest is designed to release at multiple connection points if it is caught, snagged, or forcefully pulled. The feature can help reduce entanglement risk, but it does not replace safe work procedures.
What work is this police safety vest intended for?
It is intended to improve recognition during traffic direction, roadside response, incident management, parking control, public events, and related public-safety duties.
How do I verify whether the vest meets my required visibility class?
Check the sewn label on the vest for its exact ANSI/ISEA type, class, and standard edition. Compare that information with the employer's hazard assessment and the requirements of the agency or roadway authority.
What sizes are available?
ASA currently lists sizes M through 3XL. Select a size that accommodates the uniform or outerwear normally worn underneath without restricting movement.
Can the vest be worn over duty equipment?
The adjustable design supports uniform layering, but fit depends on the equipment configuration. Confirm that the vest remains visible and does not block access to required radios, tools, or protective equipment.
How should the vest be cleaned?
Follow the care instructions on the sewn label. Inspect the fabric, reflective trim, and breakaway connections after cleaning and replace the vest if damage reduces its visibility or function.
