Utah to Arm Troopers With Road Signs: 'Slow Down'
Utah troopers are practically begging people to steer clear of them when they make traffic stops or respond to accidents. So far this year, 16 troopers have been struck by passing vehicles on the roadside, up from 12 incidents for all of last year. Troopers are adopting one solution out of frustration. The Utah Highway Patrol is ordering 350 portable road signs that read, "Slow Down: Crash Ahead."
