![]() Anything over 80 in Va is reckless driving...the cops in Va are nothing more than glorified tax collectors...esp the stateys...so happy i had a slow car while living there. The joke of the month with my friends use to be who got caught this month...

![]() You got lucky. I've sped in the northern Midwest and they've never came down hard on me like this. I was nice to the cop too. As soon as I saw him on the side of the road, I knew I was done and pulled over immediately. Happened on the day I had my car fully packed and was moving to Charlotte.

![]() I got one through there on 77 north coming out of the tunnel. The [email protected]# behind me was pushing me through the tunnel. It goes to 55 in the tunnel then to 70 when you come out of the tunnel. I was trying to speed up and get out of the fast lane to let him by (because u are not supposed to change lanes in tunnel) and when I looked up after seeing if it was clear to get over, there was a state police and she pulled us both over(the guy on my tail)!! She said I was doing 80 in a 70. I told her I was trying to get over because the guy behind me was almost hitting me in the tunnel because I was doing 60,, she said" you should just let him hit me,,,, then it will be his fault"!! It pissed me off,, I had my 3 year old son in the back and I wanted to say things I can't say on here! I had to keep my wife from cussing her out! Then she went to the guy behind me after getting my info and I could see her showing him with her hands that he was like a foot from my bumper when she saw us! I don't know what she gave him. But I guess I should risk my sons life on some jackleg hitting me from behind next time! Anyway, I got a lawyer and told him everything and he got it dropped. I can send you the guy that help me from Bland. I think he has been there for a long time, so he knows the DA's and stuff! Let me know if you want his info! And I was driving my Acura and not my Subaru's!! And I will do the same thing again to protect my family from being in a wreck!

![]() When Virginia changed their speed limits to 70, they didn't make changes to the law. 80mph in a 65mph was reckless driving. Be lucky they didn't take you to the pound me in the a$$ jail.
Get a lawyer. It will be a wicked fine and you'll get a court appearance soon enough in the mail. I hold my breath every time I drive through the commonwealth. Everyone gets a concealed carry permit, booze in the grocery stores, but heaven forbid you do 10mph over on a deserted interstate. I'll bet you were somewhere on I85 between Petersburg and South Boston in the woods. Good luck! |

![]() More state troopers in Va than mosquitos...landed 3 tickets in 4yrs all on bfe back roads doing no more than 11 over on 2 of them. Only place I've got a speeding ticket in the last 16yrs. On one the cop knew the speeding ticket wouldnt hold so he gave me a disobeying a traffic sign. Same points and cost but not able to be contested.
