US Highway 27 near Georgia 156 Crossing
The section of US 27 between Georgia 156 and the Gore intersection, between Rome and Summerville, is agressively patrolled by the Georgia Patrol.

Coming into Rome from Cartersville on Hwy 411 the speed limit changes from 65 to 55.On the right side of the road their is a place that the State Patrol sits back in the woods,you cant see him until you are right on in his face.I think a tickit could be fought on the 500 foot rule because you have 50 feet at best.
