WEYMOUTH, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 06: Sgt. Jephcott from the No Excuse team writes out a ticket as he patrols Dorset as part of the No Excuse campaign, on December 06, 2019 in Weymouth, England. The initiative is part of a force wide Christmas drink drive campaign with a fast-track policy of bringing drink drivers before a court within a week of the offence as well as the wider work of the No Excuse campaign.

Whether you admit to it or not, everyone speeds. However, there is one Colorado county that was caught speeding more than the others. The Colorado State Patrol set the scene of a common circumstance for drivers who find themselves speeding.

The department released the 2024 data on the counties that tallied up the most speeding citations, and three counties have been ranked in the top five for the past four years.

The following roadways had the highest speeding intervals issued by the CSP in 2024:

1. Interstate 70

2.  Interstate 25

3. Highway 50

4. Highway 24

5. Highway 285

NOW…The counties that received the most speeding citations by the Colorado State Patrol in  2024

  1. El Paso…2,161
  2. …Douglas…862
  3. … Jefferson… 831
  4. …Fremont…727
  5. …Mesa…684

HOPE YOU ARE NOT PART OF THAT!
