There can be many different medical issues and forces that can suffocate a crossing guard, in these types of situations.

Crossing Guards Can Be Seriously Injured by Oncoming Traffic on the Roads
A crossing guard can be seriously injured by oncoming traffic on the roads. If someone in a car is not paying attention to the crossing guard standing in the middle of the crosswalk, then that crossing guard can be injured by a car, truck or bus in oncoming traffic. The crossing guard is vulnerable to being hit by vehicles, as long as the person is in traffic directing children to cross the street safety within the designated crosswalks. Cars, trucks and busses can injure the crossing guard when people in traffic and drivers perform maneuvers such as:
- Improper turning
- Improper lane changes
- Not using a signal to turn or change lanes
- Not keeping a safe and clear distance to other vehicles
- Talking on the phone using hands
- Failure to obey posted traffic signals
- Failure to yield the right-of-way to other cars or pedestrians
- Improper passing on the wrong side of the road to go around cars that are slower
- Swerving in a lane
- Improper exit from a driveway or roadway
- Improper yielding to pedestrians
- Going too fast on the road and speeding
- Poor negotiation of a turn
- Poor lane merging entering traffic
- Making a U-turn in the roads
