Actually, Laz, you can drive pretty much as fast as you want in GA - at least here in the big city. There's always some idiot going faster, anyway. They seem to have more patrols looking for people cruising in the HOV lanes without any passengers than they do looking for speeders. Every once in a while, though, some county police force will decide to crack down for a few days. Watch out on I-85 in Gwinnett County on peak travel days around holidays. But in the city, most people take the interstate highway signs for speed limit ones. Disclaimer: Drive at your own risk. ;-)

There's nothing wrong with getting a ticket when you deserve it. The sheriff dept will stop cars all night long if the deputy determines that you are "weaving" or if your tire comes in contact with the yellow line. (Keep in mind now that our county roads are not exactly straightaways), This gives him the right to give a roadside sobriety test, check your licence and insurance card, and search the vehicle. They also are trained to yell at you because it is intimidating. They claim to make a lot of good busts this way. I've got nothing to hide, but I don't like being treated like I'm living in Nazi occupied France!
