So I just sat for 2.5 hours trying to get off the island. The level of incompetence by the GA DOT on this is staggering. There’s literally nothing you can say that would explain why you wouldn’t do this in February in the middle of the night. Are you trying to kill commerce in your state? I along with thousands of other motorist will never return because we don’t want to risk the chance of being raped by your moronic leadership.
