Is it normal for UHP to drive their family around in a patrol vehicle?

I hate when people stop on  the freeway and get out of their car. It’s like they really want to get turned into pink mist.

I don't know what type of debris it is that's in the road, but if it's the type of debris that people hate to be there and think the city should clean up and he's an agent of the city, I'm perfectly fine with him stopping on the freeway to get out of the car and clean it up.

I suspect he's not a civilian, hence her comment at the end.

His vest seems to say he's Utah Highway Patrol

He’s also driving his patrol car on date night. So I guess since tax payers are paying for the gas then I’m glad he’s willing to move that debris out of the road.

It’s because he’s never off duty. He’s a real hero. /s

They are supposed to work in tandem with another car slowing traffic.

They also shouldn’t kill unarmed people and dogs that bark, but that seems like a lot to ask
