[QUOTE="jshen, post: 15003042, member: 9092"] " Indicted on criminal intent to race " There is no such charge in Georgia! And..generally only felonies go before a grand jury. There is criminal "attempt" to commit an act..Second, Racing isn't even located in the "serious traffic offenses" such as aggressive driving..It is located in the speeding section of the code and states: (a) As used in this Code section, the term: (1) "Drag race" means the operation of two or more vehicles from a point side by side at accelerated speeds in a competitive attempt to outdistance each other or the operation of one or more vehicles over a common selected course from the same point to the same point for the purpose of comparing the relative speeds or power of acceleration of such vehicle or vehicles within a certain distance or time limit. (2) "Racing" means the use of one or more vehicles in an attempt to outgain, outdistance, or prevent another vehicle from passing, to arrive at a given destination ahead of another vehicle or vehicles, or to test the physical stamina or endurance of drivers over long-distance driving routes. (b) No person shall drive any vehicle on a highway in this state in any race, speed competition or contest, drag race or acceleration contest, test of physical endurance, exhibition of speed or acceleration, or for the purpose of making a speed record, and no person shall in any manner participate in any such race, competition of speed, contest of speed, or test or exhibition of speed. (c) Any person convicted of violating subsection (b) of this Code section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Depending on your county (Appling, Co.) those are handled in traffic court, magistrate court or probate court and maximum fine $1000.00 Last, I've spent xx years as LEO and prosecuting attorney in GA...and I now do defense work in my retirement..If sheriff told you that line- he is "mistaken". Sheriff can give you all the tickets he wants, but it is up to prosecuting attorney to file accusation and prove case. Feel free to PM me. [/QUOTE]
