Petition for more visible lanes on Utah roads gets thousands of signatures

Between falling snow or rain and inadequate lighting at night, it can sometimes be difficult to see the painted lines marking lanes on Utah’s roads.

So Nick Bodkin started a petition, calling on Gov. Gary Herbert and other Utah legislators to fix the painted lines so they’re more visible.

“We’re just wanting to make a platform that’s large enough that we can take it to them and kind of force a change in policy,” Bodkin told FOX 13. “[The lane] just becomes invisible. They’re not capturing light, reflecting it back to you — you’re just on a black road.
