Engaging in a speed contest and exhibition of speed are two traffic violations designed to outlaw street racing and punish those who engage in it. In Salt Lake City and across Utah, a speed contest charge is usually given when there is direct evidence of racing, while exhibition of speed is reserved for less straightforward situations. Depending on the officer's values, mood, or prejudices, a Utah exhibition of speed charge could come from accidental tire squeaking, accelerating a little quickly, or even just driving a nice car.
