Which made them unable to oversee the dangers. For instance, if you can take a glance of your surrounding for 10 seconds, you might find someone acting suspiciously so you can leave the scene before something happened.

Moreover, you should not be a hero without wisdom. A hero succumbs to his injury is called the martyr, hence if you still enjoy your life, meditate before you act. Try to comprehend what is going on. Assess your probability to success and the consequence you may face. Plus think about the people you love. If your disadvantage is too obvious, go find people who will adapt the situation with more experience such as the cop.
