The speed related fatal crash rate is more than double in rural counties than in the five Atlanta metropolitan counties.

The number of fatal speeding crashes increased everywhere in Georgia except for the five Atlanta metropolitan counties, including urban, suburban and rural areas from 2000 – 2006.
