Re: New Driving Penalties effective: july 1st
this state is a police state. the times ive been pulled over, i feel like i've recieved more judgment by the cop at the scene of the "crime" , then the actual judge when i go to court. the cop can twist his "case facts" around however he wants to get a conviction. when you go to court....whatever he writes down is fact and theres nothing to be judged, just a fine to be applied. its bs. im moving to california

what the heck is felony failing to signal? What entails the crime "generally" ?, how the fuck can you charge somebody with felony view obstructed?? what is "on parking lots etc", and how could that be a misdemeanor or a felony? That list is a straight license to shake VA residents down. and all that is on top of normal fines and court cost. Good luck with that one, I just got my WV license today. I told the WV DMV they may want to mail my old license back quickly to VA before they get charged a holding fee.

How is the judicial branch raising revenue? This is a law that was enacted by the executive branch, just like every other law, and enforced by the judicial branch. It's just an additional fine for dumbasses that can't follow simple traffic rules.

Fines and penalties not supposed to net gain. Thats what taxes are for. They're raising revenue by convicting people. "Hey I could convict you even if its kinda iffy and make a buncha money and get a raise" Where money is, greed and corruption are sure to follow.
