It states that it only applies to VA residents...if you have a VA drivers license, then you get the additional penalties.

Also some stupid laws are:


Kids under 8 and 80 pounds have to be in a car seat

When your under 18 you cant have more than one minor as a passenger.

theres a lot more that I learned from that class, but it's ridiculous the laws that they create.

Payment plan

(6) Three-part fee. The civil remedial fees are imposed in three equal parts. If the
fee applies, the court will order the first part of the fee to be paid to the court following
the conviction. The court will also order that the second part of the fee must be paid to
the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) within 14 months and, then, that the third part
of the fee must be paid within 26 months of the conviction. DMV will tell people who
owe the second and third parts of the civil remedial fees when those parts of their fees
will be due.
(7) Fee schedule. The civil remedial fees are as follows:
(a) Driving on a suspended license: $250 to the court upon conviction, with two
additional payments of $250 each due to DMV, one within 14 months of conviction and
the other within 26 months of conviction.
(b) Reckless driving: $350 to the court upon conviction, with two additional payments of
$350 each due to DMV, one within 14 months of conviction and the other within 26
months of conviction.
(c) DUI and related offenses (§§ 18.2-266, -266.1, 46.2-341.24): $750 to the court upon
conviction, with two additional payments of $750 each due to DMV, one within 14
months of conviction and the other within 26 months of conviction.
(d) Other misdemeanors, “Any other misdemeanor conviction for a driving and/or motor
vehicle related violation of Title 18.2 or [Title 46.2] that is not included in one of the
preceding three subdivisions”: $300 to the court upon conviction, with two additional
payments of $300 each due to DMV, one within 14 months of conviction and the other
within 26 months of conviction.
2
(e) Felony convictions, “Any felony conviction for a driving or motor vehicle-related
offense under Title 18.2 or [Title 46.2]”: $1,000 to the court upon conviction, with two
additional payments of $1,000 each due to DMV, one within 14 months of conviction and
the other within 26 months of conviction.

I've heard that you dont need to signal for changing lanes, but only for turning left or right, is this true?
