WHITE PLEADS GUILTY IN TRAFFIC
CASE
Vincent White (DOB: 09-11-63)
pleaded guilty to a class two traffic charge of speeding earlier
today in Denver County Court. White was fined $200 and ordered
to pay standard fees and court costs. He also was assessed 6
points against his driver’s license for traveling 60 miles an
hour in a 35 mph zone.
White was recently appointed to
fill a judicial vacancy in the 18th Judicial
District.
White was pulled over for
speeding on January 7, 2005 on Park Avenue West at about
Globeville Road and was arrested for investigation of speeding,
careless driving and DUI. White refused to take a roadside
sobriety test and later refused to submit to a blood draw.
White was advised of the expressed consent law in Colorado under
which a person who refuses such testing has their driver’s
license suspended for a year by the Colorado Department of
Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division.
The DUI charge and a careless
driving count were dismissed as part of the plea agreement today
because there was no likelihood of conviction and no reasonable
belief that those two counts could be proven beyond a reasonable
doubt.
