    Exclamation Dark Red Unmarked Taurus/Mercury Popping Speeders on 470W of 25

    I've seen him/her out there a couple times & today they pulled someone over two cars ahead of me. It's either a Ford Taurus or a Lincoln Mercury. It's maroon in color and I've seen it usually between I-25 and University exits on C-470 Westbound, often between the Quebec & Colorado overpasses. They've got a spotlight on the front left of the car. Ride safe out there, especially if you take the 25 S to 470 W sweeper at any kind of a fun speed!

    he also hangs out at gay bars, cock fights, childrens recitals, and the planned parenthood looking for chicks. He is indeed, an asshole.

    Were coming up on the back end of the month, so it now time for them to step it up to make that quota. They were heavy this morning on C-470 westbound between Qubec and University. There were two cruisers running cars down when I went by. I will be taking it easy going home. Not that I will be going anywhere in a hurry given the traffic.
    Take it easy

    Was it a city, county or state? Were you on the bike?

    Did anyone else happen to notice the cop on the yellow/orange Kawi sportbike at the off ramp at C470 and Morrison this weekend ? He was parked behind the utility box on the southeast corner... wearing zero gear but I did see him pull over another guy on a bike..

    Cops should be required to wear full leathers and a full face at all times. They should be setting the example for young riders. And sweating their asses off while they camp out on the side of the highway.

    absolutely no gear huh....thats bullshit. I wouldn't of even pulled over unless he had lights on it. Otherwise I would've guess it was just another squid trying to race.

    Did he have lights?

    I'm thinking that a cop in full gear would definitely prevent them from doing their job. It was also pose a much larger risk than not wearing gear. It would be pretty hard to defend yourself against someone with a gun if you were in a full face helmet and had gloves on. Not to mention trying to wear your gun belt, badge, etc on top of leathers. I don't think it would be very practical.

    Since this is on the topic of police around the area, how do cops treat lane splitting? (I'm new to CO) Like, those silly lights you guys have on the ramps to I-25, when they get backed up does anyone just jet to the front? Do cops give you grief for that?

    I would not recommend jumping to the front, it is not legal and I am sure it would cause someone to road rage. You can ,however, use the HOV lanes and ramps when you are on your bike...

    Could it have been a Impala and what county would that be? Still Douglas? My neighbor was just given a maroon Impala a bit ago, but he is usually pretty cool to riders since he is one.

    I've found a lot of police officers that are bikers do tend to be a little more understanding when it comes to pulling over bikers.

    I dunno about the county, but I'm wondering how much of 470 is in their jurisdiction since I rarely see them past the Colorado overpass or University
