Ring deployment
The ring provision is a tactical variant of the provision area for so-called "special [especially terrorist or highly dynamic] operational situations".
There is in contrast to the normally not a point at which the emergency vehicles gather, but all emergency vehicles ready made driving without specific instructions toward the work site , but keep in a fixed distance to the work site at. At the same time, the rule applies that no more than three emergency vehicles may be in the same location. Every additional life-saving appliance then has to look for a different location at the specified distance from the deployment site where it is ready.
The background to this variant of the staging area is that in the event of terrorist attacks, the collected emergency vehicles themselves can become the target of an attack (so-called "second hit"), which is prevented by the "rectification". In addition, in this case the command center can relatively easily pull the ring around the scene larger or smaller ("All vehicles move one kilometer back [or forwards]") or move it ("All vehicles north of the X - Y line move forward one kilometer , all vehicles south of the line X - Y one kilometer back ").
