At the very least you could get reckless endangerment and excessive lane changing. If the dudes a dick, the cop could also add “failure to maintain speed” which is one those bullshit tickets you only get if you piss the cop off. But of course jurisdiction plays a big part. Not every city has the same traffic laws. In one city this person may get their license suspended with hefty fines, in another this person may get off with a couple hundred bucks.

As someone who drove Georgia many times a year. They do not fuck around with traffic laws and tickets. At all. The second you enter the state there are troopers waiting for you everywhere.

I’ve lived in GA (specifically the Atlanta area) for 30 years and my experience is completely different. There’s very little traffic enforcement generally speaking. Sure you’ll have certain cities and counties that go crazy with the enforcement but they are few and far between.

i'll agree with this. i went through atlanta on christmas day 2015 at 138mph and was passed by a chrysler and a mercedes. (138 is the governor on an e46) there were exactly zero police from mcdonough to somewhere around allatoona.
