    Seems surreal that Virginia produced such noted Revolutionary War luminaries as;
    George Washington
    Thomas Jefferson
    Patrick Henry
    George Mason
    Benjamin Harrison

    Times sure have changed!

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Ahh the good ole days when a man did things to better himself and others,now......... we do it for profit....................and we can see what that has brought.......no new Washingtons or Franklins.
    Washington is now paid off by the lobbiests and Franklin has sold out to the big profiteers.
    Its gunna take longer than u thought and its gunna cost more too(plan ahead!)

    The reason that Virginia added fees instead of raising the ticket cost was because ticket revenue goes to public schools whereas the fees would go to the highway fund. Virgina expects to get over $200 million a year in fees. (must be a lot of law breakers in Virginia )

    The other states that already have rules similar to Virginia are: Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Texas. The most expensive of those 4 is Texas. All of them add multi-year penalties for expired insurance and licenses.

    PA doesn't yet have multi-year fines or penalties but they got fees. For a $25 violation they tack on an additional $68 in fees for everything from the cost of writing the ticket to padding a fund for emergency medical.

    Our good ole Democratic Governor is now saying he did not know that language was in the bill, and if he had, he would not have signed . Yeah, I believe that .
