I drove an import from the chester to the burg everyday for 3 years w/ cruise set on 80. No tickets. I used to nod to the troopers in the median.

Dual power sliding doors ftw!

(Nearly) Every car I ever saw pulled over was out of state and many of those w/ tinted windows.

That's bs on the exhaust tickets...my car is loud and the inspection sticker has been dead for almost 2 years...no tickets.

I have a little bit of a rub near lock but if you are turned to lock on a track there are other problems already...

I would go to court for then man. I had good luck with courts here for only ticket I've gotten while at school. It was 16 over on Neff Ave. and the judge was really nice. He told me I could take a driver improvement course online and he would drop the ticket. So I did that and came away clean. It's a hassle to make it to court but sometimes you luck out.

It's only because his car shakes if he goes to fast. In fact he CANNOT speed.

Hey Matt... have you had many tickets in the past? I mean I was pulled over in Harrisonburg by city police for 56 in a 35 (RECKLESS) and the cop kept it at that. BUT he did say that the judge at the courthouse he usually deals with (i dont' know if he is the main judge or what) is softened up a little if an online drivers improvement course is completed before the court date. Shows a little bit of responsibility/remorse I guess? Being overly polite to the cop is a help too of course...

Because I had taken that online course, and the cop mentioned by cooperation (which Im sure you did also), the judge dropped it completely and told me just to slow down lol... It was also pointed out that i was going downhill on Neff so I don't know if that played into anything or not. But Im pretty sure that online course thing did it for me too. Might not work but it was direct advice from the cop that pulled me over. He could have saved his time and just let me go.

damn that was a long post. You're court date has probably already happend by the time i submit this shit.

Can you really get a ticket for tinted windows with out of state plates?
In Texas its legal for my car to have 20% Tint in the front and no limit on the back. I have 20% in the front and 5% in the back on my Acura. I've never been hassled for it by a VA cop. I've been pulled over once for a bad tail light, and been followed across town for no reason. Neither times did they mention my Tint and its pretty damn dark.
I was planning to put an exhaust on my car over the summer, in hopes that im exempt from VA law, since my license and registration are in Texas.
Anyone know a true answer on law for out of state drivers?

VA speeding laws really suck. I got pulled for 45 over (90 in a 45) passing other cars on a dotted yellow in Tennessee and didn't even get wreckless. Cop just gave me speeding, I mailed the county a money order for $143 and that was it. Granted if my mom hadn't been with me I probably would have gone to jail.

Don't you have to get a VA license and plates after being here for a certain amount of time? I think military are the only ones exempt.

Technically the answer to your question is yes.

But that doesn't answer mine, what if I was just visiting?

Yes you can. The law is written as "any vehicle operated on roads within Virginia" or some such nonsense.

The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
