heads up
Effective July 1, 2007, the wonderful Commonwealth of Virginia will
impose with any traffic ticket, other than a regular speeding ticket, a
heavy civil penalty (yes, this is a new charge) in addition to the fine
and court costs that you will have to pay.
Here are just a few...
Driving on a suspended or revoked permit - Civil penalty
$750.00 + the court cost & fines
Reckless driving - Civil penalty
$1,050.00 + the court cost & fines
DUI - 1st offence - Civil penalty
$2,250.00 + the court cost & fines
Failure to give proper signal - Civil penalty
$1,050.00 + the court cost & fines
Leaving the scene of an accident - Civil penalty
$3,000.00 + the court cost & fines
Be careful when you drive. Tell your friends. This is the
website that lists the offenses and how much each civil penalty is.
