I feel bad for you guys. VA sounds like a great place for an enthusiast to avoid. $1000+ for a first ticket at age 22 is outrageous! I realize that any violation is left up to the officer, but here in WI I've never heard of anything like that. In fact, I got caught "driving fast" with two other sports cars (75 in a 45) and the worst the officer said he could've given us was $300 and 6 points. Ended up with $200 and a disorderly w/motor vehicle charge. Btw, I'm new, so hi all! I'm sure you'll catch me in the emanage forums asking noob questions shortly.

I heard the bill didnt pass. But thats why I live across the river
|
damn i wonder how they would react to my 130 in a 55 :gay: never got caught yet. thank god.
|
here in hicksville SD(city of about 150K people) you can drag race down the busiest street in town with three other cars and only get a exhibition driving ticket which is a $90 fine. The worst I have ever heard of someone getting is a wreckless driving charge which is still only around $200. You guys are getting raped
|
VA is crazy about traffic laws.
|
i lived in MI, VA, NC and now CA. VA has been my least favorite by far. NC has been my favorite. owning and operating a car? MI was the easiest, NC was the cheapest by far.
|
Actually in VA, if your radar detector is "Built-In" to the car, they can't really do anything about it. I learned that when I was pulled over in VA w/ PA tags from some state trooper (as he wrote me a reckless).
|
I got a reckless charge for practicing drifts in a HUGE parking lot....with cones no less. Done it before at other places and never had a problem. Setup cones, do a little practice session, pull out the skateboards...you know, I don’t go and fuck shit up. This last time the cops weren’t having it...:td:
I have till September to finish my year of probation and just finished my 25 hours of community service. Nothing goes on the record, no fine, just pay the lawyer. :bigtu: Vash- |
really...they cant do that on private property...unless the state somehow owned the parking lot.
|
See, I thought that too, but my lawyer told me if the parking lot has 10+ parking spots, that they can. They said that by me having a friend in the car that I was being reckless. My friend said he didn’t mind and that I do it all the time, not sure if that helped the situation.
Vash- |
well....insert vash :vash:

Check that out.... $300 annual fee for an operational N2O system, and that's as bad as your second refusal of a blood/breathalyzer test, and that's as bad as using a commercial vehicle to distribute a controlled substance!?!?! All 3 get $300, 3 installment civil assessments, what a bunch of B.S. Mark PS - Looks like it's law: http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp...bil&val=hb3202 |
aren't you glad you'll be in MD mark?
|
No, I am glad that I am a gun carrying Texas resident. Although MD seems to think that I should be disarmed... which sorta sucks ass. Where is the logic of being in the military and NOT having a weapon?
Mark |
at least va has lax gun laws. ironically, md is where id most rather havea gun.
|
gun laws dont mean much. i live in DC where guns are banned and hear gunshots once a week.
|
so now you hear them twice a week now??? oh wait no...most poeple dont go around shooting guns...legal or not.
|
Bottom line: Guns don't kill people. Ninjas kill people.
|
ninja gaiden is out soon for the ps3 and it's *gorgeous*
|
I used to kick ass in that game...when controllers had an "a" and a "b"
