Recently, the Virginia Senate has shown some consideration in terms of Virginia’s reckless driving laws. A person driving 11 miles per hour over the speed limit will be considered a reckless driver and may be subject to 12 months or one year in prison. Therefore, some changes have been proposed.
Therefore, it was recommended that the upper reckless driving limit be changed from 80 to 85, allowing more leniency for drivers.
In this case, drivers would be considered reckless drivers if they are caught driving over 20 miles per hour. This has been taken into account as the Senate has emphasized that driving only 11 miles per hour over the speed limit and resulting in the possibility of serving a jail term for a period of one year or 12 months is not reasonable. . As for the rest of the laws and regulations, the Senate has not advocated or proposed any changes.
However, it is of great importance that drivers stay up-to-date with the most recent changes in Virginia’s reckless driving laws.
