What do you think of this idea? Drivers who are pulled over for going 75 mph or more on two-lane roads or more than 85 mph on any state road would be forced to pay an additional $200 in fines.

It appears that is what Govenor Sonny Perdue is proposing under legislation being filed Thursday. Not a bad idea. Perdue announced the filing of his "super speeder" legislation at an event promoting motorcycle safety. Perdue estimate that the ligilation could genetate $25 to $30 million each year, which could finance an expanded state trauma system. " There is a clear link between people who cause deadly accidents on the road and the rising strain on our hospital emergency services" Perdue said.

Great Idea but also included any roads! ESPCIALLY roads 30mph and the SPEEDER is going 50! but hey this is a step in the right direction. Better then them ignoring speeders!
