Don't become a habitual traffic offender in Colorado

holy crap! My truck is my baby!!

I would think crushing the truck cost taxpayers $$$, why not auction the truck and make some $$$?

He gets two years, truck gets crushed? assbackwards
 
my guess is that they are trying to get a point across. Having your chit destroyed kinda makes things hit home, huh?
 
Colorado DMV or Department of Revenue take your pick is such a joke, the people that work there got turned down as school lunch ladies. "driving is a priliage in the state of colorado" what BS is that, but paying road tax is mandatory? HMM? just a load BS. Oh 9 news forgot to mention he also could face 1 year in state prison. I do not get it in most of those violations listed where exactly is the "crimial act"? CRIMINAL ACT - Any crime, including an act, omission, or possession under the laws of the United States or a State or unit of general local government, which poses a substantial threat of personal injury, notwithstanding that by reason of age, insanity, intoxication or otherwise the person engaging in the act, omission, or possession was legally incapable of committing a crime. 29 USC

Well for starters how about hitting and killing the old lady crossing the street. Then putting her at a bus station and saying you didn't do it?
That is hit and run as well as vehicular manslaughter.

MOST? most (mst)

1.

b. Greatest in amount, extent, or degree: has the most compassion.
2. In the greatest number of instances: Most fish have fins.

pron.

I saw to 2 years bit, the minimum penalty is 1 year, unless plea bargined down. Say you got 3 reckless driving tickets in 5 years did not hurt anyone, you go to prison? it seems a bit harsh!

In colorado if you are going 10mph over its a 4 point ticket, 10 of 'em in 5 years and your truck gets smashed, hope this doesn't happen to me!!
 
Damn, If they would do that In New Mexico there would be hardly anyone on the road . In my local paper we see guys with 10 and 12 dwi's getting arrested again every day. this part of the country has among the highest DWI rates in the country.and has toppedd the list several times. WE NEED THIS LAW

I don't know if the car was his too, but I am saying that it is safe to assume that the truck was paid off. I think that Colorado is trying to get a point across about driving safely and responsibly. Yeah, the cars probably could be put to better use by donating them to charities and such but then there is no point being driven home.
 
I think this guys case is a bit more extreme.
1. He didn't have a license in how many years?
2. He should not have been driving period if he wasn't licensed
3. He hit and killed and old lady and lied about hitting her (Obstruction)
4. He's damn lucky cowboy law doesn't prevail. I think some states he would have gotten alot more and my state is one of them.
 
I'm all for the guy cooling his heels in the pokey for awhile, seems like he should have gotten a bit more time to me, but seizing a vehicle and publicly crushing it seems quite chickensh*t to me. Big Bad Government showing how tough they are, pathetic.

BINGO
 
Are you guys seriously feeling bad for a guy that killed a person and lied about it? I hope I don't step out in front of you when driving? The guy broke the law, plain and simple. If a person breaks the law he or she deserves to be punished, no and ifs or buts about it.
 
Colorado has some weird rules. I passed a Larimer county deputy a couple of years ago on the road between Ft. Collins and Wellington, it had snowed about an inch that night and Officer Gonzales was driving down the road at about 30 mph in his Camaro cop car in a 55mph speed zone and I passed him on about a 2 mile straight stretch with good visability. He pulled me over and wrote me a ticket for driving to fast for conditions and told me here in Colorado the officer sets the speed limit on a road that he feels is safe. I called the sheriff there when I got home and said how was I to know that rule being from another state? And the sheriff said yea your right and I would write you a warning but that he was not going to overturn his officers ticket but would tell him to use a little more common sense in the future. That was my first ticket in over twenty years, that is why it stung so bad. Got pulled over in Cheyenne once for 66 in a 65 got a warning there but the Hypo told me he was sick and tired of you people from Montana thinking that you can drive as fast as you want.
 
Yeah, had problems with between the troopers down there and the company I worked for up here. They kept pulling our Cargo Drivers over stating that their DOT sticker #'s aren't big enough. I don't know how many times the 2 guys down there had to park it and how many sets of new stickers we sent down there. Only to have them pulled over again and told they we're not big enough. (They were the size of a basketball by then). Finally I think they put it on the panel and put in huge letters down the side of the cargo truck.
