1st offense of driving on a suspended license in Va?
Virginia Driving on a Revoked or Suspended License is one of the most serious traffic offenses one can be charged with in Virginia second only to Virginia DUI/DWI with a high blood alcohol content. This charge carries a real probability of jail time and most judges in northern Virginia will ask the defendant to secure an attorney if the defendant is unrepresented on the first court appearance.
The maximum penalty for a first offense is a jail sentence of 6 months, a $1,000 fine, and a license suspension for the same period for which it had been previously suspended (or up to 90 days if the suspension was indefinite).

It should be to have a "conversation" with R13. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img] Can't think of anything worse.
Each offense "garners" a 6 point tally on your driving record if convicted and a trip the the VASAP program.

Having to play a game of catch with PassMan might rival that...lol.

I was just referencing burton and the topic. I just used the quick reply screen at the bottom. Not intended toward you castle.
I had a buddy who got his suspended for 90 days after driving on suspended, he also got some fines.
I was in court one day for a speeding ticket, the 2 people who went before me were there for driving on suspended. They each got license suspended for another year, 20 hours community service, $500 fine, 20 hours trash pickup, and 10 days in jail suspended.
The bullshit of it is, if you get pulled over and have never had a license they won't do [censored] to ya. But if you have had 'em and lost 'em your [censored].
You want to hear about getting screwed? I got a ticket for driving/suspended, cost me $1,100 with VA's bogus new outrageous fines. Add on that bogus 85 dollar reinstatement fee at the DMV. I'm liable to be 80 before I can drive again!
