FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS just made mobbing motorists dangerous.
[O]ne thing that ... really grabs the attention of both sides is the actions now taken against those who decide to block roads and intimidate motorists.

“3rd-degree felony to obstruct traffic during an unpermitted protest, demonstration or violent or disorderly assembly; driver is NOT liable for injury or death caused if fleeing for safety from a mob,” reads the law.

In other words, if you surround a car and begin intimidating the driver or passengers, attempt to gain access to the vehicle, or begin damaging the vehicle, if you do happen to be in front of the car when it speeds off and you get hurt or die, then the driver is not in the least bit of trouble. You go under the wheel while the driver is trying to escape the mob, that’s on you, not the driver.
So I no longer need a cowcatcher for my truck; I can simply run over the rioters.
