Colorado Drivers Face $75 Tickets Under Expanded Automated Speed Enforcement

While you must not speed on public roads, even if you do, Colorado’s new automated vehicle ID system (AVIS) will track your average speed and send you a ticket if it exceeds 10 mph. This renders a speed-camera-tracking app on your smartphone useless, as the new system works in a very different way.
