Timnath, Colorado Speed Traps

Traveling west on LCR 38 you cross the County Line and the speed limit drops to 45 mph. At the bottom of a hill, on the north side of the road by a tree, the patrolmen catch lots of cars before they have a chance to slow down. This is an effort of the Timnath police, the Sheriffs Department and the State Patrol.

Either a Sheriff Department motorcycle or a white vehicle will be on the west side of the road backed up in a lane using radar on both north and south traffic. This road along with LCRd. 38 are in the expanded city limits of Timnath and are the only roads in the area that have the reduced 45 mph limit. They nail lots of vehicles and use this means for raising revenue for the town.
