Sure this is great and all but...

GOING 10 MPH OVER THE PSL IN A 70 MPH ZONE WILL LAND YOU A RECKLESS DRIVING TICKET!!!

Yes, Reckless Driving, A Criminal Offense that will go on your record, have to pay a high fine, and possibly lose your license for awhile, even send you to jail if they like.

No wonder why they want it to pass so bad, you can bet your sweet ass the Virginia State Troopers will be handing these tickets out like candy.

Someone needs to start a riot against this, I'll support it.

Probably a little late for that, seeing as how it's headed to the gov's desk. Just another reason I don't go to virginia. If there's anything I learned about governors, it's that they do what you want them to do some of the time, but if you really care about an issue it somehow works out against you when they sign that bill or veto it. Murphy's law of politics: if there's a possibility of being screwed over by a politician, it will happen.

You mean damn, hard to believe this didn't pass sooner?

The whole reason they don't tell you is so you don't know, until you see the blue lights and the goofy looking bastard with the pointy hat and strong southern accent speaking with you laughing about how screwed you are.

Without a doubt you can bet this was brought up as a plus for raising the speed limit to get more money out of the hard working peoples hands.

Virginia is a piece of ****.
