Drivers, start your engines..... Originally hailing from the great state of Indiana, this is the well known start to the Indy 500 every May. As the drivers start their engines, then proceed around the track before being unleashed at speeds in excess of 200 MPH all that is heard is the roar from the engines.
Unfortunately, Governor Perdue also thinks this same vision plays through the minds of most Atlanta drivers when they hop in their car to head to work, go out to dinner or just run some errands. While 285 may be made for speed, it’s not made for “Super Speeders”.
The new “Super Speeder” law just took effect on January 1st and it’s about to get really expensive on Georgia road.
Going 85 miles per hour or more on most Georgia roads, including interstates, will cost a speeder an additional $200. On two-lane roads, meaning one lane each way, the extra fine kicks in at 75 mph. And that is on top of whatever ticket the speeder gets for going over the speed limit.
The state will send a letter notifying the speeder of the $200 fine, which must be paid within 90 days of the letter’s date.
