• 4 lives were lost in 30 days, so Georgia deputies will take 'zero tolerance' approach (wsbtv.com) — Drivers in Screven County should expect zero warnings for speeding after the sheriff's office adopted a strict citation-only policy following four traffic deaths on local roads in the past month. Deputies say the crackdown applies to everyone and are urging residents to slow down, buckle up, avoid phones, and stay alert behind the wheel.
