Yes. As someone who has lived in and driven in MANY other states, Utah is among the worst. Driving in San Diego and Seattle was such a refreshing change! Slow merging, aggressive drivers, lane-hogging, distracted (Phone) drivers, no turn signals and inconsistent speeds (slowing down by 10-20 MPH going around curves) are all far worse here than almost anywhere else I can remember. Only state I have driven in that I remember was worse was Mississippi. If there were only 4 cars left in the whole state, they would all be driving next to each other at the same speed on I-15.

Utah drivers are the worst at these 4 things. 1. Camping in the passing lane 2. Signaling and proceeding with a lane change without checking if someone is beside them. 3. Not accelerating to the right speed on the highway accelerator ramp. 4. Get's aggressive when they're 100% in the wrong.

@Generallyannoyed2024 Who your the one going 80? There is no reason to go 80 miles hour. No reason at all. BTW I meant on a road in the city, not the freeway. AND YOU DON'T KNOW THE SPEED SEC RULE??? EVERY 10 MILES A HOUR YOU HAVE TO DO THAT CAR LENGTH PER SEC: SO GOING 70 MILES A HOUR YOUR COUNT UNTIL 7 WHEN YOU PICK A SPOT AND COUNT UNTIL YOU PASS IT! THAT IS HOW FAR YOU ARE FROM THE CAR! BUT PEOPLE CAN'T DRIVE OR FOLLOW THE RULES OF THE ROAD, THAT IS WHY WE HAVE SO MANY ACCIDENTS BECAUSE PEOPLE GO WAY TO FAST OVER 70 MILES A HOUR! EVERYBODY IS TAILGATING DOES NOT MATTER WHAT LANE THEY'RE IN! THAT CAUSES ACCIDENTS!!!!!

I bet every state thinks they have the worst drivers but UT is an exception. Merging onto highway at 30-40 mph is the worst. It's actually really dangerous doing this and I don't get like 99% of drivers do this. I bet they think that you are not supposed to start accelerating until you on the highway....NO... that's what ramps are for...for you to get to highway speed by the time you are on the highway. Was in KS a while back and it was way less stressful driving there, then when I got back to UT the anxiety/stress all came back in an instant. I had a hard time finding jerks on the road in KS the week I was there and the min I was back in UT I seen a jerk driving almost every min.

I have lived and driven all over the country and I can can honestly say Utah drivers are the worst!!! They are rude, in a hurry, and have a “me first” mentality. Couple that with their lack of defensive driving skills and you have a recipe for disaster that we see every morning in rush hour traffic on I-15! Just Google worse drivers in America if you need proof. Insurance companies did a study on the number of claims filed and Utah tops the list. I can’t even back out of my driveway without people speeding right up to me! I have to back out, then pull over and let cars in both directions pass me because they will not even let me get all the way out of my driveway before speeding right up to my bumper and they were nowhere in sight when I was pulling out! So rude! Utah is a great state for so many things… but not their drivers! It’s literally certifiable! Utah has the WORST drivers!!

I figured out some of the issues. There is not enough officers on the road giving out tickets. In California, the cops and chp officers give out tickets all the time for speeding and other things. Also, why are those freeway shoulders are so narrow? It makes traffic stop way more unsafe. It is hard to change tires without getting a hit. Therefore, Please have more highway patrols and other officers give out tickets to speedsters.

I personally don’t see really a lot of bad drivers here in Utah. The problem I’m seeing is lot of impatient Drivers here then I see anywhere else. I mean look… I know we all got places to go, but the way we’re doing that’s the problem. Like I’ve noticed from other drivers if there’s a car going little bit slower than everybody else like they’ll kinda panic and get pissed off and go around them like in a aggressive way. Or when there’s like a huge truck /commercial truck goes slower in the right lane because they can’t go as fast in seconds like other cars do because they’re bigger and heavier especially at a stoplight about every car will be in the left lane waiting instead of behind the truck in the right lane and then when the light green and cars pass the truck like they’ll go around them in a aggressively way.

Abso-fkn-lutely. Moved here in 2023, instantly realized UT drivers are the most arrogant, entitled, clueless, aggressive drivers I've ever come across in 40 plus years of driving throughout the country. I'm guessing it's because everyone is armed, which isn't a bad thing, as I'm pro gun, so nobody shy's away from an encounter. Even Utah residents warmed me of the road rage epidemic here, and they weren't lyin.
