NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A newly proposed bill states drivers would get immunity from civil liability if they hit and injured a protester blocking roads.
House Bill 0668 was sponsored by Representative Matthew Hill, R-Jonesborough, and Senator Bill Ketron, R-Murfreesboro. The bill would apply if the person driving the vehicle was exercising due care and struck the protester blocking traffic in the public right-of-way.

Hope it passes and turns into a nationwide movement.

Too bad they didn't add criminal immunity as well.
The next Black Lives Matter protest could become Domestic Terrorist Bowling. Have a cash pool and establish a points system.

Tennessee might be a nice place to go for an evening drive, and then the next evening and the the next evening and then the next...

I support the initiative.
I would think it would be difficult to charge must less prosecute anyone fleeing from an angry mob regardless.

I'll bet it does. You haven't been following our state legislators very well if you think it won't.
Memphis reps will cry long and loud, as will some of the liberal Nashville areas.

How cool would it be to take out some of the paid posters on PT, and then claim self defense? For it!

If they are illegally blocking the road they should also have to pay to repair any damage to your vehicle.

I am going to say I dislike this bill.
Because I can see the future abuse.
"I know I was texting and shite, but the old lady in the crosswalk was obviously protesting something.

As long as the bill includes a due care, which it does, this is great.

The Progs will counter this by putting small children and toddlers in the front lines.

Then they could be arrested for endangerment. Cops would arrest them quicker for that than obstructing a roadway, maybe.

It does. Use due care not to stand your stupid arse in the road trying to impede traffic and commerce.
