I lived there from around 2000 thru 2010. Worked on South side of Salt Lake valley and lived down in Orem, right against Provo.
Still have family in the area. What can I tell you? Feel free to PM me if you want.
Visiting family members would often comment about the aggressive drivers in Utah. It's true they can be a little over the top. I think some of that may just be from living in the West. [Repeat: SOME!]
Keep in mind that those Western states are BIG and getting anywhere takes some time. People drive faster to get across those wide open spaces. I'm sure Lee would back me up on that part. Then you take that 75 to 80 mph speed (or more) and stuff it onto the city streets and it may take a bit to slow down. Makes for some spectacular crashes!!
Fortunately most places are fairly wide open so you can see them coming!!
