Colorado Hospitality

In most places, can't you fight those by requesting to confront your accuser? Because it's a camera, nobody has techincally accused you. However, I think the cities get around this by having an "arresting officer" sign it. Usually not worth going to court, though.

Someone correct me, please.

Curious about your XTerra. I miss mine.

 

No friendly cameras like that allowed in Utah

 

I had a plain jane '06 S 4WD and a 6 speed. Gave it up way too cheap too...

 

None down here in Co Springs either, come visit sometime

 

Many jurisdictions reduce the time the yellow is on when they install cameras. It is one reason studies have shown that accidents actually increase at intersections with red light cameras.

Boulder will need your money when they take over the electric utility and try to run on green energy.

PS: I've seen Futureman's Xterra. Thing looks new. I guess ten years of no winters helps. I have a few jeep roads in mind for it next summer. We'll see how new it looks after that!

 

So that what's that is. Well, I'll be. Last time I was in Denver I got one of those pictures. I threw it away because I didn't think I deserved an award or anything. I was just doing my part by trying to keep the flow of traffic moving.

Wear a mask in Boulder. Got a Mitt Romney mask I will sell you CHEAP!

No cameras yet in Aspen. Lots of Texans though. Heck, one bought the house next door as a vacation home. From Dallas. The Ewings? LOL

 

I have heard that the ticket is active for 90 days. So, you can choose not to pay the fine and if you don't get served in person during that 90 day period the ticket is dropped. But if you do get served you will be paying a bit more than just the fine. Any legal guys on here with the definitive scoop?

 

Not sure why it wouldn't go to a warrant?

It's astonishing that any X over 3 years old looks new, as the bumpers usually fade to hell. How do you keep it nice?

 

Actually, I'll be more impressed when it looks like it was used in the manner it should be. I may have to check your skid plates next fall to see if you have truly embraced the Colorado lifestyle!

Not sure either but it doesn't, at least in Denver. From the Denver Police web site

Failure to respond to the notice may result in a Penalty Assessment Notice being authorized by the Denver Police Department. This Penalty Assessment Notice will be personally served by a process server and will result in a service fee of at least $29.00. If a Penalty Assessment Notice is served you will be required to appear in court unless payment is received 5 business days prior to the respond by/arraignment date listed on the Penalty Assessment Notice.

The respond by/arraignment date is listed on the served Penalty Assessment Notice. This respond by date is your arraignment date. You will need to pay the fine and costs including the personal service fee, submit a not pictured driver affidavit or nominate the driver (not required to) within 5 business days of the respond by/arraignment date. If you wish to plead not guilty you need to go to the Denver County Court, Room 109 by 5:00 PM on the respond by date.

 

I think we had this conversation in September now that you mention it. Seems to me there are plenty of mechanics who could re-thread (I forgot the name of the tools for doing so) the holes and send you on your way. Ask Helms. I've seen oil trails on jeep roads that either lead to an abandoned vehicle or a spot with a big oil puddle where it was towed from. Hopefully the owners noticed before the motor blew. Either way, it's a very expensive misfortune.

Judge: Town's speeding cameras are '3 Card Monty' scam

 

Any chance your using First Ascent Mountain School? If so tell John Jason said hello, they are great to climb with..


Have fun, and dont get stuck, we are getting pounded down here.

 

It's a hassle, that's how! The bumpers and pretty much all exterior plastic on my '04 XTerra are in bad shape, and once the weather gets better I'm planning to do a pretty big overall that starts with heat-gun to remove all oxidation, and then go thru and repaint the plastics back to black using ( product to be determined after research )

I found some tips/ideas/other comments on the job thru searching Xterra forums like this one: http://www.clubxterra.org/forums/showthread.php?t=29451

 

When the cameras first came out in Boulder there was a guy speeding by them wearing a paper bag over his head. Turned out it was a Boulder detective "kidding around".

 

Taxpayers money at "work."
