About Vivian J. Paige
A former candidate, I've learned a lot about politics, both good and bad. I'd prefer more of the former and a lot less of the latter and I'm trying to do my part!Discussion

Wow.
That is devastating and correct.

Posted by Anon E. Mouse | Thursday, July 19, 2007, 2:25 pmIf a driver obeys the driving laws in the Commonwealth of Virginia, guess what, they do not have to pay the abuser fees. Bad behavior = punishment.
Posted by Virginia Voter | Thursday, July 19, 2007, 3:25 pmThe punishment should fit the crime. Is it a crime to live in Virginia?
Posted by Anon E. Mouse | Thursday, July 19, 2007, 3:38 pmAEM – I guess so
Posted by vjp | Thursday, July 19, 2007, 10:01 pmSay what you will about a gasoline tax, pro or con, but at least out of state drivers who fuel up in the Commonwealth while using Virginia’s roads pay the same amount we do.
Posted by anonymous | Friday, July 20, 2007, 10:18 amIt is simply bad policy to use the courts as tax collectors. Governments, like individuals, respond to economic incentives. By making government dependent on taxes disguised as fines, we create an incentive for government to make lawbreakers of us all.
These fees are expected to bring in $65 million a year, much of that from “Reckless Driving” in the form of tickets for 75+ mph on the Interstates which still have 55 mph limits.
What happens if we all just drive 74 mph and no more? Do they just say, “Oh well, we’ll just tighten our belts” and let it go? Or do they find other ’serious offenses’ to make up the slack? Once government gets used to a revenue stream, they rarely give it up. Keep in mind that the BPOL tax was created to pay for the War of 1812. Do you see that tax getting repealed now that the Brits have really given up?
What they will do is turn the whole State into a giant Emporia speed trap.
