DESCRIPTION
(Article via daily mail ) A Georgia man caught speeding down a freeway last month was slapped with a $1.4million ticket - and he says he was told he either had to pay it or come to court.
Connor Cato was driving through Savannah on September 2 when the Georgia State Patrol caught him going 90 miles per hour in a 55-mile-per-hour zone.
Cato expected to receive a 'super speeder' ticket, which is handed to anyone driving 35 miles over the speed limit - but nothing exceeding the $1,000 maximum fine.
Assuming it was a typo, he called the court and alleges he was told he either had to pay or appear before a judge.
'"$1.4 million," the lady told me on the phone,' Cato told WSAV.
'I said, "This might be a typo" and she said, "No, sir, you either pay the amount on the ticket or you come to court on December 21 at 1.30pm."'It was only later that the Georgia man learned the jaw-dropping $ 1.4 million fine was just a placeholder.
The fee was generated by e-citation software used by the local Recorder’s Court that is automatically applied to 'super speeders,' said Joshua Peacock, a spokesman for Savannah’s city government.
A judge will set the real fine at Cato's court appearance, which is mandatory for 'super speeders.'
Peacock clarified that the amount was not meant to 'scare anybody into court.'
In a statement, he said: 'The programmers who designed the software used the largest number possible because super speeder tickets are a mandatory court appearance and do not have a fine amount attached to them when issued by police.' Posted by JR
