Regulating on Highway 82

Editor’s note: This letter was originally addressed to Pitkin County Sheriff Bob Braudis.


Editor:

On Friday morning, June 20, I had the great good fortune of following one of your deputies from El Jebel to Aspen on my daily commute to work. Needless to say, everyone behaved — no speeding, no single occupant vehicles in the HOV lane, not one diesel dually pickup truck tried to run over me and my small car. And I got from Carbondale to the ABC in 30 minutes!

It’s really quite a beautiful drive when you’re not having to constantly fend for your life.

Please, please, please patrol Highway 82 more during the rush hours.
