How long do you have to respond to a Priority 2 hit?

The appropriate response time for a Priority 2 hit is 60 minutes. This timeframe is established to ensure that law enforcement and emergency responders can gather the necessary information and resources to effectively respond to situations that, while not classified as immediate threats to life or safety, still require timely attention. The additional time compared to higher priority calls allows for a thorough assessment and coordination among responding units, which is crucial in ensuring the safety of both responders and the public during such incidents. This timeframe reflects a balance between urgency and the need for careful evaluation of the circumstances surrounding the hit, thereby supporting a structured and effective response protocol.
