Epic Traffic Problems in Virginia
More than many other states, the commonwealth of Virginia faces an epic traffic problem. With Interstates 95 and 66, as well as 495 looping around Washington, D.C., the major political hub of the country, brutal commutes marked by accidents and traffic jams are the norm for local Virginia drivers. Add to this the interstate trucking traffic and vacationers, and the traffic situation in this state is catastrophic.
Strict Penalties for Driving on a Suspended License
One of the main efforts that our government has made to curb this problem is to increase the penalties for traffic violations in the hope that this will make drivers more cautious on the roads.
Many people don't realize this, but they can put you in jail for up to one year in Virginia for driving on a suspended license or reckless driving. Our Virginia attorneys for driving on a suspended license charge can defend you against these charges. We will do everything possible to keep you out of jail if you are facing a driving on a suspended license charge.
Driving With a Suspended License
Driving on a suspended license or after a forfeiture of driver's license is a serious crime in Virginia. Some of the common causes for license suspensions or forfeitures can include:
- DUI
- Reckless driving
- Rapid accumulation of points with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
- Conviction of a felony involving a motor vehicle
