    If there isnt a sign, its not a construction zone. Plead not guilty.

    Go down the street ASAP - take a video and add commentary that there isnt a single damned sign. Go back and get the nearest speed limit sign before the construction so you can prove that the speed limit is 70. You were not told that you were in a construction zone and the law has no provision for "common sense".

    There's technically construction before the exit, so the next 70 in about 3 exits south of the Newnan exit?

    Here's what's wrong with your theory. The construction zone starts at about mile marker 32 and ends at mile marker 61. North and South. There are markers all up and down that 29 mile stretch. Both directions. It is clearly a zone. This will be tough to beat.

    Good luck to the OP, though. Later, QD.
    FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!

    Keep in mind that this all happened within about a mile from the on ramp. There was a construction zone sign about 1/2 mile after the cops, but none before. There could be another sign before the on ramp that isn't visible to merging traffic. I'm not sure if that helps me at all though.
