State Treasurer-elect Colleen Davis caught driving on suspended license

State Treasurer-elect Colleen Davis could have a hard time commuting to her new job after being cited this week for driving on a suspended license and three other traffic-related offenses.

The 38-year-old Dagsboro resident has a history of driving infractions. She was stopped by Delaware State Police about 7 p.m. on Tuesday after a state trooper clocked her doing 72 in a 55 mph zone near the intersection of U.S. 113 and Gov. Stockley Road, just south of Georgetown, court records show.

During the traffic stop, the trooper discovered the newly elected Democrat's driver's license had been yanked for a previous infraction not listed in court records.

Despite the suspension, the health care consultant still handed the trooper her suspended license, a misdemeanor in itself, court records show. Davis also failed to produce proof that her husband's 2015 Honda Odyssey was insured or even registered, according to court records.

Speeding and driving on a suspended licence with no proof of insurance are not minor offences. She sounds like a scofflaw and that is not good look for someone who is an elected (treasurer elect) official. We rightfully raise hell about the republicans and their disregard for the law and the law applies or should apply to everyone.

On edit; post meant for Simple C

long past younger years. I remember once having to sell some of my mechanics tools to pay a fine so my parents would not find out. The so-called "good old days".
Have a good sunday.
