    We knew this was coming, they claim it was planned, and the massive recent wreck had nothing to do with it, but the amount of teeth gnashing, yelling and screaming has lead to this. In one day, they stopped 98 trucks and issued 50 citation. Wake up ladies and gents.

    Colorado State Patrol enforcement campaign focuses on truckers

    The CDOT had the balls to ask me what I thought about them building more lanes, I told them enforcement on all drivers including cars and cops, My fault

    Survivors of the people that were killed are probably asking “ where was the highway patrol a month ago?”

    Maybe those people would still be alive if they took enforcement as serious then as they are now.

    I’m guessing somebody got them a butt chewing

    The funny thing is that they do nothing about the madhouse of dispensary-enhanced drivers in 4 wheelers. Mayhem and they're sitting in the median chatting. For trucks they should be looking at plates from flatland states... like ahem Texas

    Point the troopers at I-25, that is getting ridiculous, they really should have built that super slab they were talking about years ago and just bypass all them cities unless you really have to go there.

    ANY state could build roads out of pure gold bullion if they would use the highway patrol for anything other than JUST speeding. But the VIPs (and EVERYONE in a car/SUV is a VIP) all talk and text daily while driving and only the left lane is a suitable conference room for VIPs making important decisions like which Disney video to watch or "just what does Carol think she is doing by saying that to me?" Car people elect the lawmakers, who are car people, and the problem is ALWAYS with the outsider, ALWAYS.

    At least the pot heads are paranoid and scared, look at all the booze infused festivals they have in all the mountain towns and then Denver and the magic mushrooms.

    My state has been invaded, they are all lunatics now. And it is time for all the vacationers to hit, seems like it is legal to stop in middle of road to get a picture of that wildlife.
