Speeding ticket in CO - live in CA?

[Privateer]

two of us got tickets on our trip.  My friend actually called a traffic attorney out there who was nice enough to give a free consult.  Lawyer said they do not report violations under 20 over to whatever system they use.

The other side of this story is that the officer screwed up and gave me a summons date that was on a sunday.  So he reissued the ticket and screwed that up because soon after I got home I received a letter that I had exceed 20 days past my summons to pay the fine. 

Uh.  no.  it hadn't even been 20 days since I'd received the citation.

of course I'd mailed the check off the morning I received this letter from the court.

Called and spoke to the court clerk and they're helping us figure it out.  totally lame.

What's this I hear? Bumbling and incompetence on the part of state workers!? I'm shocked, sir! This is surely a rare and isolated incident!

I will say though, the two years that I've been to DiTR, the local LEO's seemed to be pretty decent.

First year a rider had a get-off, and another rider took his bike for a shakedown run after... when he came screaming back down the hill the sherrif was standing there watching him... didn't even given the othe rider a ticket (probably could have arrested him), just a stern "knock that shit off".

Second year, I flew my bike off a cliff, only picked up a Careless that doesn't seem to have transfered to NM for some reason...
