A Super Speeder violation can result in significant financial penalties and potential consequences for your driving privileges in Georgia.

Under Georgia law, a driver is generally classified as a Super Speeder when convicted of driving 85 mph or faster on any road or highway, or 75 mph or faster on a two-lane road or highway. This designation applies statewide and is not limited to Gwinnett County.

In addition to any fine imposed by the court for the underlying speeding offense, the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) imposes an additional $200 Super Speeder fee.

Important: The $200 Fee

The Super Speeder fee is separate from the fine associated with your speeding citation. DDS will send a notice regarding the fee and payment deadline.

If the $200 Super Speeder fee is not paid within the required period, your Georgia driver’s license may be suspended. If your license is suspended, additional fees and requirements may apply before your driving privileges can be reinstated.
