  • Impactpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Present, 25 of 25. The potential harm is concrete: the suspect slapped the face of the victim and produced a firearm, and the notice stresses that he "is not in custody".

    What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.
