system too loud!

i got a ticket earlier today for having my system too loud! i was cited for being able to hear my car from 150ft away. does anyone know what a price of that may cost in GA, and have they ever had a ticket for that before? if so...please reply to anything that may have resembled a audio ticket for your car...thanks

when the officer pulled me over, i was right aside of her (definately not 50ft) and she immediately pulled me over right away just because she thinks its too loud. its officers judgement, if u try to fight, you got no proof that your system cannot be heard within this amount of feet.
