A further clarification of risk reduction is to require no vehicles within 400 feet of the runway centerline. This includes CFR and photographic!

It wasn't Vmcg but during water trough testing that a well-known biz jet departed the runway and clipped a photographer's truck that was parked too close. Not only loss of the airframe but nearly three fatalities as well - thank goodness for oversized astronaut's boots!
