18-year-old Cayden Holcomb of Rochester was clocked driving 58 mph on 2nd St SW in front of St Marys Hospital. He was fined $290.

Another Rochester man flaunted the law twice in a 2-hour window. A cop stopped 29-year-old Kaprice Lance for driving 57 mph (40 mph zone) on 12th St SW near Apache Mall. He was ticketed for speeding and driving with a revoked license. Two hours later he was caught driving again, just a few blocks from the first stop and given another ticket.

And here’s a traffic citation never seen before - a violation involving what state law calls an "implement of husbandy."

In this particular case, it was a manure spreader.

An officer pulled over a pickup truck that was pulling a manure spreader on Highway 52 in Rochester on Dec 3rd. The trooper must have been aware of the law that says “No person may operate or tow an implement of husbandry at a speed of more than 30 miles per hour.” The driver - 66-year-old Steven Weigel of Platteville, WI - was doing 62 mph when he was pulled over. The trooper also checked the tires on the manure spreader and found they were rated at 30 mph. Weigel ended up paying a $190 fine.
