In Georgia, speeding is a misdemeanor offense. Any misdemeanor is punishable by a fine of up to $1,000.00 and 1 year in jail. As a practical matter, hardly anyone is sentenced to jail as a result of a speeding citation; however, it can happen. With regard to fines, I know of several jurisdictions throughout the state where you would be fined $700.00 (or more) for your ticket.

Would a speeding ticket received in Georgia by a Pennsylvania driver result in points?
This depends on whether the state participate in a nationwide database known as the traffic citation automated transmittal system, better known as TCATS. It is unclear whether Georgia participates in this, but since it neighbors South Carolina, it is not difficult to transfer such points. It also depends on whether you were a South Carolina driver/resident at the time the Georgia ticket was issued. For example, if you were a Florida resident who accumulated six points, and then moved to South Carolina, where you were issued a drivers license (of course, in exchange for your Florida license), generally the points you received in Florida do not transfer to South Carolina. However, if the points do transfer from Florida, the points are cut in half in South Carolina.
