Tailgating charges in Georgia
Tailgating — following too closely — is charged when an officer alleges you didn't keep a safe distance behind another vehicle. It is frequently cited after rear-end collisions. In Georgia, a conviction adds demerit points toward the Georgia DDS suspension threshold of 15 points in 24 months, and the conviction follows you to your insurer.

Defenses that actually work
Defenses address sudden stops by the lead vehicle, traffic density, the officer's distance estimate, and the lack of an objective measurement.
