Atlanta to also add ticket surcharge

The Atlanta City Council has approved a citation surcharge in order to combat rising fuel prices.

The proposal is similar to a surcharge approved by Holly Springs on Monday.

Motorists cited for speeding, DUI or other traffic offenses could pay an extra $10 to $15. The council hopes the surcharge will raise at least $500 million.
