Georgia Man's Shocking $1.4 Million Speeding Ticket Raises Eyebrows

A Georgia man was shocked to receive a $1.4 million speeding ticket, but city officials clarified that the figure was just a placeholder and not the actual fine. The citation was issued after he was pulled over for driving 90 mph in a 55 mph zone. Savannah officials explained that anyone caught driving more than 35 mph above the speed limit must appear in court, where a judge will determine the actual fine. The figure received by the man was automatically generated by e-citation software and does not exceed $1,000 in addition to state-mandated costs. The court is working on adjusting the placeholder language to avoid confusion.
