John Hickenlooper's Budget Proposes Doubling Number Of Traffic Fines

One of Mayor John Hickenlooper's proposals to help make up a $100 million deficit includes nearly doubling the traffic fines for going 5 to 9 mph over the speed limit from the current $40 to $79. The plan, which needs the approval of City Council, would bring Denver's traffic fines in line with those in other cities throughout the metro area and bring roughly $3 million more to the city.
