Speeding and Reckless Driving:
- Are Higher Speed Limits More Dangerous?
With speed limits set to increase on some of Virginia's main roadways, such as I-81, it's important to take a look at whether or not the higher speeds will lead to more crashes, injuries and deaths. - Speeding and Reckless Driving in Virginia -- The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles Points System for Traffic Convictions
In Virginia, if you are convicted of a traffic violation, the court will notify the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), which then assigns demerit points to you based on the particular violation. The DMV can issue an order of suspension, if applicable, and also require you to successfully complete a driver improvement clinic. The DMV will also notify your insurance company upon request. - Virginia Traffic Crash Facts
