Educate yourselves about trucks and logistics that provide everything you and your family use daily before you make stupid comments about trucks. No trucks no cars, No food, No gas. If you have it a truck provided it!

The cops participating...are these the same ones I trail at 90+ mph on their way to absolutely nowhere. I regularly tail all sorts of state vehicles on their way to forsyth to the training center in the mornings. One guy had the nerve to flash his blues at me AFTER we ran from exit 212 to 187 at 95mph (got a partial cell phone video to prove it). The law applies to everyone, but I agree that speed is not the problem in and of itself. It just magnifies the devastation when bad driving habits finally catch up to someone.

I agree with most of the comments here about the waste of time and money. Law enforcement has become a lazy mans game. Its much easier to exact money from everyday drivers going to work than it is to get the same amount of money from criminals. Also why doesnt the state inact a law that prohibits 18 wheelers from being on the interstates around atlanta during rush hour traffic. They aren't going anywhere anyway and all they do is add to the congestion. Have them pull over at truck stops or rest areas or whatever during rush hour and let everybody get to work or get home and then give them the road back. It isn't rocket science.

Where do you start. First I was around before I-75 so I guess I'm an ole what ever,but really it hasn't been that long, early to mid 1970's. Wreckless drivers, tailgaters, and yes speeders, but the biggest problem will ALL Drivers, I want to be the last to leave and the first to get there, or at least until I volunteered with a local fire department that covered I-75 from Red Top to the Cherokee County Line.
This show in my opion is a waste! Enforce the speed laws on EVERONE, ALL THE TIME, as well as the tail gater an other wrecklessness. No where in the state of Georgia can you drive the posted speed limit, not just the interstates, but check U S 41 as well.
Fine the violators, big time.
Please don't waste any more of my money on a one time show.
If you're late, leave eariler or move closer.

And how much will this cost the tax payers in fuel cost @$4.00 A GALLON

Are you kidding illegal aliens? How about doing the speed limit! It's a highway not the speedway. Slow down!!!!

GSP should be writing tickets for tailgating, unsafe lane changes, and speeding 18-wheelers. I would also like to see GSP on motorcycles in high accident areas with the goal of writing tickets for unsafe driving (not speeding!).

What a waste of tax payer's money, 100 cops and vehicles burning up gas and wasting putting on a show for folks on 75, most of whom dont even live here.

100 patrol cars driving slowly on the interstate to make a "point"? GOHS needs to stop the grandstanding and get busy with more meaningful efforts like going after aggressive driving and speeding. What a waste of our tax money.

Thus far this year, as noted in another article on this topic, a grand total of 5 people have died in traffic accidents in all of Bartow County thus far this year. By my count, that is about 1/month – every one of them a tragedy, yes, but far better than most years. We do not hear how many of them actually occurred on this particular 3-mile stretch of highway – a safe, easily driven stretch with long sight distances, for those not familiar. My suspicion: somewhere between 0 and 2. I find this a pretty flimsy justification for what appears to be a 90 day, 100-car publicity stunt. I wonder how many thousands of gallons of gasoline will be consumed? 5 gallons / day * 100 cars * 90 days = 45,000 gallons of gasoline, as a highly conservative estimate. Yes, that will help the fuel crisis. Glad to see the gov’t is looking out for us.

Law enforcement likes to leave the impression that these sorts of "crackdowns" actually make the roads safer, not more dangerous from drivers slamming on their brakes as they come up on artificially clogged traffic. I, and many other individuals, will simply go around the traffic blockage, thus re-routing some traffic fatalities to other locations, at the cost of extra gasoline and time. I wonder to what extent such re-routing contributed to the alleged "58% drop" soundbite from Savannah. Furthermore, I see no statistics as to whether this was a long term improvement or only during the "crackdown".

Also, it should be noted that I-75 does not run through Paulding County, so I am not sure why Paulding deputies should be participating. The mentioned strip of highway, all of 3 miles long, is wholly well inside Bartow County (nowhere near Paulding.) Shouldn't that be out of their jurisdiction? Perhaps they will be patrolling surface streets and highways within Paulding.

Certainly, individual drivers ought to drive responsibly. No one is going to deny that. But somehow the idea of a "crackdown" seems to fit better in an old Eastern Bloc country where they said, "Your papers please, comrade" than in a country where we say, "Give me liberty or give me death!"

Why don't police go after criminals instead of the people driving to work? My home was broke into twice and its like pulling teeth to even get them to write a report....much less show up. Its all about money and laziness. A big "Show".
