HOT Lane Moratorium Bill Filed: A Conversation with Sen. Curt Thompson (D-Gwinnett) ATLANTA, GA (WABE) - Georgia's experimental high-occupancy toll lanes, called "HOT" lanes, have been controversial ever since they went into operation last year along I-85 in Gwinnett County. Now, State Sen. Curt Thompson (D-Gwinnett) has filed a new bill, which would impose a moratorium on any new HOT lanes. Thompson spoke with WABE's Denis O'Hayer. © Copyright 2012, WABE
