Brilliant another law. Another example of the definition of insanity!

Violence is unacceptable, especially on our roads! Let's practice patience, respect and consideration when driving.

I agree M

[@joncharlotteschoen]

How about people practice adult responsible driving and there wouldn't be so much road rage? There's a lot of pretty stupid people out there on the road. And get off my a** when I'm in the right lane and going the speed limit. Someone does not need to be 3 ft from my rear bumper when I'm going at the proper speed and travelling 55/65, whatever the speed limit is. It seems like in Utah the speed "limit", is considered just simply to be a suggestion by 99% of the drivers. I'm not saying road rage is the proper response. What I am saying is that a lot of incidents like this happen because there's so many idiots on the road who shouldn't have driver's licenses. Or, those on the road you don't even have a driver's license because they're not a United States citizen/aren't here legally.

patience is a virtue few possess.

hey, when you gonna prosecute bright lights? never?

[@shawnhuff3920]

If the Utah government takes away vehicle's and driving privileges driver's licenses from people who commit road rage crimes and Americans are left to walking everywhere people will stop road rage 😳

[@joncharlotteschoen]

I think it's much more important that they start enforcing whether people have driver's licenses / insurance or not. How many people in Salt Lake and Utah county are illegals, driving illegally on our roads built with our tax dollars, and they're not even here legally? And if I get hit by them, what?, my insurance pays.

@@joncharlotteschoen the penalty for being illegal and driving privileges should be looked at..I think that insurance company's illegal activity should be addressed as well the government allows citizens to vote but the government doesn't provide protection for their citizens

Travel should be a right, not a privilege. The government wants to make everything a "privilege" so they can meter out favors to those who submit to them.

@@fredandrews9216 road rage is not an excuse to get from one place to another place and people with anger issues and mental illness should not be able to have a driver's license or a vehicle they can walk or take a bus 🤔😀

If you get a ticket for road rage they should make you do the interlock for a year. A guarantee you that after one year with a blow n go nothing in life will ever make you mad again.

[@MrDepodot7]

they dont prosecute idling or tailgating

[@joncharlotteschoen]

Idling straight up doesn't matter. If I want to leave my car running for 5 hours, because my wife's inside the mall and I'm waiting for her, and I want to keep the AC on, it's my damn business. Tailgating, on the other hand, is an extreme problem here.
