I wonder if the State of Utah will ever update the traffic code to reflect the reality of driving a car here.
For example, traffic lights: Green means stop, look both ways a minimum of three (3) times each, then prepare to go on yellow. Yellow means go. Red means FLOOR IT GO GO GO GO GO!
The instant a car stops at a sign or traffic signal, it is mandatory for the car behind to immediately start laying on the horn.
Under no circumstances should you ever use your turn signals, as this is considered a sign of weakness and will promptly cause every other car around you to block you from changing lanes.
Speed limits on the freeway are a mere suggestion, indicating that drivers in the right lane should travel a minimum of 10 mph over the stated limit, drivers in the left lane should drive 15-20 mph over the limit, and drivers in the middle lane should drive 15-25 mph under the limit.
When approaching an exit on the right side of the road, it is mandatory to shoot from the right lane across all lanes over to the far left lane and then back across all lanes to the right lane, ensuring that the car that was immediately in front of you is now immediately behind you within the last quarter (1/4) mile before the exit.
If the car ahead is more than 3 feet in front of you, you’re not close enough and must accelerate.
If you drive a black car, it is mandatory to be in stealth mode after sundown. This means fully-tinted windows including the front windscreen, no headlights, no taillights, no running lights, and no license plates.
When making a left turn at an intersection, never turn from the left lane into the left lane. It’s is mandatory to either turn from the left lane into the middle lane or right lane, or from the middle lane into the left lane. U-turns must be completed from the outermost lane into the outermost lane on the other side, preferably midway between two intersections if there is no center divider or median.
I’m sure there are more examples. Dave Iltis has contacts in the legislature, so I expect him to get on this project with immediate effect.
