The streets downtown are all one-way, and as Brian said, all directions are in terms of the mountains - and trust me, ‘going toward the mountains’ gets you on one of those one way streets, where it‘s impossible to talk your way out of a ticket. ( I don't think they like Californians)
I ’d also like to point out that the coin operated telescopes at Buffalo Bill’s Museum & Grave don’t work and don’t give refunds.

I dont think the CHP likes Coloradans either. My last run in w/ them was w/ a Colorado plated rental car......but seriously, how can one keep to the speed limit on those long desert roads??

Well thank you Brian, throw in lunch and you’ve got a deal.

I’m with you on that, nice long stretches of highway just begging you to put pedal to the metal. Luckily Sgt keeps license and badge in the same wallet - CHP does extent the courtesy.

And then there’s the Eisenhower Tunnel, which you definitely don’t want to go through on a week-end during ski season. Trust me, I never saw so many cameras sticking out of sun-roofs in my life- and they’re in a tunnel!
I’ve heard that Coloradans hold their breath while going through the tunnel. (Well Brian?) Obviously they know the off peak hours.
