    Default Go 45 mph on GA 316, or risk $2,000 penalty

    You have to see it to believe it. From the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, here is an excerpt from the article,

    Ga. 316 commuters, get used to driving slower.

    Starting Friday, the highway's 55 mph speed limit will be cut to 45 mph between Sugarloaf Parkway and I-85.

    And it won't be raised again until December 2008.

    DOT officials urged drivers to pay attention to speed reduction warnings posted on changeable message boards and newly flagged 45 mph speed limit signs. They also warned drivers that traffic fines in work zones are doubled to $2,000 for each offense.
    So watch out and drive carefully in that area. Maybe get that home equity line of credit approved before getting out on Atlanta roads.

    this is getting out of control. 316 isnt even that bad of a road.

    atleast they didnt do that on Ga. 400 :twisted:
