I’m having a hard time settling on how I feel about this law. On the one hand, I recall too the images of drivers being dragged from their cars, and the protestors stopping and potentially harming (I.e.late for work) innocent people. I think blocking the roads is bad and creates unnecessary tension and animosity. On the other hand, driving over them is not an option anyone would completely endorse, and I worry this will lead to some idiot assuming he can plow with impunity. Arresting the protestors is not feasible. There’s no law short of a Berlin style death strip that will prevent protestors from encroaching on roadways. So a law that gives some cover to motorists who, without malice or intention, hit a protestor. They may not be immune from civil suit, and there should be necessitated to first find if the driver was truly accidental, or, in fear of their life. It’s not an easy solution to find. *Edited for grammar and spelling.
