Sup everybody. I was googling "GA statue 40-6-181" and by the 5 page I saw an old thread on this site. I take it some of ya'll might be familiar with those numbers. I own some land in central GA and sure enough GSP were in full force today... ended up with a 92 in a 55 :eek:... 37 over. I was in the middle of BFE turner county too. I drive an 2006 F-250 6.0L (hope ya'll allow trucks here) its pretty quick though :D
So here I am, can any of you relate... how fucked am I? :doh:
I have 45 days to call and get a court date.

Flawless as far as I know. I've gotten out of a few tickets in FL but did get written one which i did traffic school for. The GSP deputy dipshit was less than helpful and did not give a rats ass about anything i had to say. I bet it had something to do with the big FL Gators sticker on my back window.
The only things I might have going for me in court are some technical errors by him on the citation. He put the court date as Oct. 3, 2009 then scribbled it out with a pen and circled a number to call within 45 days. I have a drivers license in FL but he recorded my driver license as in GA.

If your lucky you can just pay the ticket instead of going to court
One thing I can tell you is that tickets here are much cheaper than the ones in Florida

Not to mention GA just enacted a law Jan 1st 2010 that basically states if you're going XXmph over the speed limit (it's real low, like under 10mph or something), they will add $200 to the fine.
If you're under 21 and get caught for that, you lose your license for a pretty good while. Lol.
Good luck.

the first part of this is incorrect. the law is, if you're caught and convicted of a speed of 75+ on a 2 lane or 85+ anywhere in ga, $200 will be added to the fine. its nothing but a revenue maker, but 85 is PLENTY fast. keep it under 10 over the speed limit and you'll be fine.
im over 21 so hopefully I wont lose my license, my FL attorney didnt say anything about that. Thanks for the welcomes
being over 21, you wont lose your license, but be prepared for a pretty hefty fine and probably 5-6 points on your license. sucks you got popped! slow that behemoth down! lol

My ticket was $650 after a $50 D.A. fee. Considering your record it will be most likely in the 800's at least.
