Question for a LEO

[SideShow Bob]

I saw that today; a white CDOT truck sporting red and blues on the sides and they were activated as they were working on an intersection.

People ignore the amber or Amber/ red strobes, and there have been too many near misses and a few accidents to the vehicles and or personell working to get the traffic signals up and working correctly.

Authorization was given from higher up as far as CDOT is concerned to run reds & blues for the on call/emergency service bucket trucks. To lower incidents involving these vehicles.

But regular maintenance vehicles still have ambers. But the move over & slow down law still applies to them.
Several local city signal maintenance vehicles have had reds & blues for a very long time, authorized through local jurisdictions.
