Here is another handy bit of information about decreasing speed zones in GEORGIA. If your going from say 55 to 45 or 45 to 35..... They can NOT start clocking you within 300 feet of the lower speed limit sign. City or county can only charge you for MORE than 10 mph over the limit. Oh, they can write it but you can beat it like a rented mule, but it is up to you to contest it to the judge. Granted, most LEO's know better than to try to write for less than 11 mph over but they will take liberty with the 300 foot rule. That one is a lot harder for you to prove in court. Please keep in mind that I am refering to CITY and COUNTY here. GSP ( full growns to you and me ) can write you for 1 mph over if they so choose. I don't know any who have, but they must not have met some of the posters ( won't mention any names :wink: ) on the board YET! :P
