Default Another Speeding Ticket

I was pulled over the other night for doing 59 in a 45. This will be my second speeding ticket in my p-car in a year and a half of ownership.

It seems to me that the police go out of there way to pull Porsches over.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a traffic attorney in the Denver, Colorado area?

Thanks,

Paul

I was just in Denver last week, and I've never seem more cops and people pulled over for speeding.
Ever. Anywhere.

My recommendation?
Find somewhere else to play with your p-car. Those cops are hungry.

Anyone who speeds needs to 1) learn to left foot brake and have your left foot hovering over the brake at all times; 2) use your intuition; 3) look far, far ahead and be paranoid if speeding; 4) expunge their license so a police officer or judge sees a clean record. This is what my friends tell me to do. I have not had any points on my license in about twenty years.

Fortunately, LIDAR can't shoot through glass, and at least in NJ the cops are too wussified to sit there in sub-freezing temperatures with their car windows open.

I agree - Denver has a very high number of speed traps. I travel there quite often and you just can't be too cautious. Thankfully I've also found a high number of idiots in SUV's driving in Denver and they're often pulled over.
