SANDY, Utah (KUTV) — A woman reported a road rage incident in mid-October after someone threw a chunk of concrete at her car on 700 East near 8100 South in Sandy.

Tammy Smallhouse said the incident began when a driver began forcing her into oncoming traffic.

“For some reason he turned around and chased me,” Smallhouse said.

Smallhouse reported that the driver swerved through traffic before she was able to return to her lane. It was then that the confrontation intensified.

“A big chunk of concrete, and it looked like he was in his passenger seat. . . he just picked it up and threw it,” Smallhouse said, noting that the concrete hit the rear passenger-side door of his car.

The attack shook Smallhouse, but she was unable to get a license plate number before the driver sped away.

Sandy Police Sgt. Greg Moffitt advises against pursuing aggressive drivers.

“It doesn’t help, it makes the situation even more dangerous,” he said.

Moffitt added that it can be difficult to identify road rage drivers, comparing it to finding “a needle in a haystack.”

He advised witnesses to focus on gathering details safely.

“Be the best witness,” he said, encouraging people to stay calm.

Smallhouse said: “It’s really scary, and I don’t know what the answer is, because it has to be something bad enough for people to stop doing it.”

Police are still searching for the suspect, who Smallhouse described as a man, possibly in his 20s, driving a low-slung passenger car.
