So how bad are Utah drivers, really? The evidence is somewhat contradictory.
Not everyone is of the opinion, however, that Utah’s driving problems are bigger than in other states.
Sgt. Chris Bishop with the Utah Highway Patrol agreed that in a state with people from all over, there’s bound to be some clashing driving styles.Bishop said the Utah Highway Patrol is concerned that during storms, people don’t slow down — last year, they stopped almost 4,800 people for driving over 100 miles an hour.“Whether we can say it’s because Utah drivers are bad, I don’t know that,” Bishop said. “But I think we need to be responsible when we’re behind the wheel.
actually gives Utah an index number of 26.52 — the best in the nation — on its Bad Driving Index, which considers each state’s percentage of insured drivers, its number of DUI arrests and its amounts of car fatalities. Turley said since moving to Utah, she’s noticed more distracted drivers than where she lived in Arizona.
