House Bill 160 went into effect on January 1, 2010. Any driver convicted of driving 75mph or more on any two-lane road, or 85mph more anywhere in the state will be assessed a $200 fine on top of the ticket’s fine. Failure to pay the $200 fee will result in a $50 penalty and an automatic license suspension.

Official Code of Georgia 40-50-86 allows licensed Georgia drivers to request a points reduction of up to seven (7) points every five (5) years.

To qualify for the points reduction, you must complete a certified driver improvement course and then present the original certificate of completion of the course to DDS by mail to their Conyers PO Box or in person at a customer service center.
