My son was dropped off by the bus today, our subdivision entrance is on a divided highway that lets you drive onto either part, no barriers just a gap of paved road. In the state of Georgia, per the rules, you HAVE to stop if the bus stops on the opening of the divided highway BOTH SIDES. so what do these lovely drivers do? Well what do you think....honk, serve around people who correctly stopped, you know, the usual.

So thanks to this lovely place for scaring the shit outta my kid (and distracting him) and others for road raging next to an elementary school bus. I'm glad you got to your destination a whopping 60 seconds later.

Here is the law for those who want to know.

>Title 40 - Motor Vehicles and Traffic (Chs. 1 — 16)

>Chapter 6 - Uniform Rules of the Road (Arts. 1 — 15)

>Article 8 - School Buses (§§ 40-6-160 — 40-6-165)

>§ 40-6-163. Duty of driver of vehicle meeting or overtaking school bus; reporting of violations; civil monetary penalty for violations captured by school bus camera

I have a 4th grader and a 2nd grader in Cobb County school. In previous years, digital learning days would consist of maybe a worksheet or an activity. This year, the amount of work changed dramatically.

My 2nd grader had 12 worksheets to complete and my 4th grader had 10. This seemed to be...a lot. We all got through it but I was just wonder if some school board decision was made that impacted this.

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: I have heard back from Georgia power & it is not a scam. Someone has started service under my name unfortunately. Not sure of the how or why yet, or if it was a mistake, but either way an account has been opened in my name. Going to meet with someone in office later on & contacting the police as well

Received an email today from Georgia Power that explained my service had been started at an address I haven't lived at in 9 YEARS. It had my name, email, service address & an account number. I almost passed it off as a scam or a mistake of some kind since this was a previous address of mine that I did have serviced through them back in 2017. But I typed the email into google & it was a legitimate Georgia Power email address. I then went to their website & was able to pull up an account that confirmed the same info as the email. But the account had a PIN number that I didn't know or set, so was locked out after 3 attempts. So I called their customer service number 1 (888) 660-5890 but the lady couldn't give me any information on the account because I didn't know the pin. She was able to confirm a new service had been requested and started. She then told me to email their fraud department my social security card, my photo ID, a selfie of me with my photo ID and telling them to immediately stop service and open an investigation.

I searched the email address she gave me because I was still thinking it was a scam especially after needing those documents but not telling me much of anything with the account. But the email she provided is also a legit GA Power email. I emailed them explaining all of this but said I will not provide personal documentation until I am aware that this is 100% legitimate & CC'd GA Powers customer service email as well just to be safe. I am waiting to hear back but wanted to let people know this is going on. Any information on what I should do if they do come back saying this is not a scam would be helpful! Ive never had my identity stolen before and I am freaking out

Hey all, trying to hunt down an affordable dentist / endodontist to place a molar crown for a teenager.

He has Medicaid but unfortunately they won’t cover the crown (extraction is the only option). I’ll be paying out of pocket for him, so far quotes are around ~$2-2.5k.

I already checked the Augusta dental school, they unfortunately no longer accept 13-14 year olds as new patients. Likely won’t qualify for any sliding scale / income based clinics either.

Would appreciate any recommendations in the region! Based in ATL metro but willing to drive wherever.

I received a message today from my credit card showing a transaction under Georgia power company for $750. I don’t even have an account with Georgia power. I reported it and locked my credit card. Is there anything else I need to do?

I did some research and asked my friends and they said that Georgia power doesn’t usually show as “Georgia power company” in the credit card statement, it’s usually under a different name. Should I investigate this further? My credit card was not stolen and I was told it was an online transaction.

Title. I am looking to buy a used car and need suggestions on where to start my search locally (I am already looking on Autotrader, but am leery of making such a big purchase online). Any places which I should check out or definitely avoid? Car ownership is new to me and the whole process seems very daunting. 22M, paying cash, based in Cherokee County if that helps.

I started my day with my roommate knocking on my door.

There was a woman being dragged by a man in the street in front of our house and being repeatedly hit with a gas can.

My roommate called DeKalb 911 out to our area in Norris Lake (cops took 20 minutes) and I went down to do what I could. I've worked for PAD in Atlanta, and various other similar programs and knew enough to know that it'd be way better for me to intervene then someone random.

I get down and learn that he threw her purse into the bushes (had her ID, social and other things), I send him the fuck off and attend to the 19 year old woman. Got her bag sorted and out of the bushes, when a nurse pulled up and started to talk to us as well.

Three more neighbors made their way down and I went to change into something besides fresh out the shower clothes.

By the time I come back down (still no cops), the dude had pulled back up in his busted up minivan. Girl proceeded to get into the car and they drove off.

I took a picture of the license plate, gave it to the cops when they pulled up. They couldn't find them.

I'm confused. Supposedly the reason these flock cameras exist is to track cars involved in criminal activity.

I gave her my email and sent her an email with DV resources, and had her message me on Facebook before I went to change. I'm such a fucking idiot. I wish I would have just stayed and overheated.

I still have the picture of the abusers license plate, and the victims contact information. Cops told me there was nothing they could do.

Is there anything more to be done from this point? I'm too much in a fight or flight kinda mode to be aware of things I missed.

So, I am an SSI individual who has been trying to get Medicaid for a while now but keeps getting denied. It says that since I receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), I don't get Medicaid. Now, I did get a card, but it's still denied no matter what, and I truly don't know who to speak to or how to get the proper help. I truly need a case manager for myself. I'm 22 and I have a disability and need support, but not understanding the system of why I keep getting denied and who to turn to sucks. I've tried to speak to someone, but it wasn't much help as they told me to talk to Social Security, but they bounced me back to DFCS. Any support would be helpful

Looking to get a new CVT transmission in my 2019 Sentra does anyone know mechanics that work on them in the Atlanta or Cobb area?
