    Default I guess getting pulled over in Virginia isn't so bad if you're a Congressman.

    Not only does he get pulled over for speeding, he's still talking on his cell phone as the leo approaches the vehicle. Being that Virginia is one of the hardest on common motorists when it comes to traffic violations, being a gobbling congressman has it's merits.

    I heard Virginia cops write their own troopers, and their own mothers if they stopped them. Can't believe they let off a congressman haha. Then again, if the cop wrote him a ticket he'd probably get fired and everyone listening to the radio would know even more how much VA cops suck ass.

    from Article Comments:

    Congressional representatives have immunity from traffic violations while traveling to or from official congressional duties.
    What? Does anyone have a source for this, I was unaware of this...
