    DIAMOND v. THE STATE.
   Quillian, Presiding Judge.

Defendant appeals his conviction in a jury trial for the offense of driving a motor vehicle 40 miles per hour in a 25 mile per hour zone in Savannah. Held:

1. Defendant was tried in the State Court of Chatham County. A pretrial motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction was denied. Defendant sets forth 7 enumerations of error, which, with one exception, are confusing and non-meritorious. The defendant’s complaint seems to be that the state court had no jurisdiction to try him for a violation of a Savannah ordinance. There is no merit to this contention. He was tried for a violation of Code Ann. § 68A-802 (Ga. L. 1975, pp. 1582,1583) which establishes a speed limit of 30 miles per hour in urban districts throughout the state. Municipalities may decrease this limit to 25 miles per hour under Code Ann. § 68A-804 (Ga. L. 1975, pp. 1582, 1583), which Savannah did by ordinance for the street where defendant was stopped. Any violation of Title 68A and of a local ordinance may, at the discretion of the local prosecutor, be charged as a violation of the state statute or local ordinance (Code Ann. § 68A-1507 (Ga. L. 1974, pp. 633, 690)). The state court has jurisdiction over all misdemeanor offenses in the county (Code Ann. § 24-2106a (Ga. L. 1970, pp. 679, 681)) and violations of Title 68A are misdemeanors (Code Ann. § 68A-102 (Ga. L. 1974, pp. 633,643)). The trial court did not err in denying the motion to dismiss.
