Default New Legal Presence law in VA

yall might want to call DMV and check the status of your license.. a new law was passed in january.. it involves people gettin their license for the first time and anyone who has had their license suspended or revoked in the past year or so. it's just some way of makin sure that illegal immigrants don't come into the country and get their drivers licenses and all and then turn around and pull some terrorist attack.

yesterday i hit a pothole and bent my rim and got a flat tire, the cop that stopped to see if everything was ok wanted to run my license anyway and it turns out i had been driving on a suspended license since january. he said he wouldn't do nothin cuz it was most likely pertaining to this law and that DMV isn't notifying people when they cancel your license when it's because of this new law. He just told my passenger to drive home and to call DMV. I called them today and they said that all i had to do was come show my birth cirtificate and i can get it reinstated. it's pretty messed up they didn't notify me about this, but i'm just glad that i can get it back when i go back home on friday
