RV NEWS OF THE WEEK

​License Plate Snapped, Ticket Mailed: Colorado’s New Radar System Goes Live Soon​







Just because you don’t see a cop in Colorado, it doesn't mean that you can’t be ticketed! The Colorado Department of Transportation recently installed its first photo radar cameras, which it will use to ticket those who speed in high-risk work zones. The camera snaps a picture of a vehicle's license at one place and again at a second place and analyzes whether the person is speeding. If the vehicle is going more than 10 miles per hour above the designated speed, a speeding ticket will be issued. The program will soon start on Hwy 119 near Boulder.
