Question got a speeding tix in VA lately?

since the new law came into effect 7/1, has anyone here got a reckless driving ticket and pay the outrageous fees? just wondering?

please be on the lookout for cops appearing on the RIGHT side of the road /w their radars OFF. They only flip them on when cars are nearby and immediately flip them OFF again, V1's wont save u last min!

The last few weeks Ive encountered this situation 7-8 times. I would pick up no signal... but all of a sudden my detector would go crazy. Ive been seeing police in areas where you generally would never spot them too!

Generally I-66 is bad, but they've become more abundant on 495 for some odd reason. If you guys live near Gainsville area off 66, late at night there are TONS of state troopers waiting to yoink you, be careful everyone.

Wow. Virginia seems horrible.

Maybe you guys should start using IEDs on the troopers!

Instant On ? right ? if you floor the breaks RIGHT when the detector starts going crazy, you can still be saved, I think
