In VA:

in general:
0-9 MPH above posted limit is 3 points
10-19 MPH above is 4 points
20+ above is 6 points & reckless

Also anything above 75 is reckless..

Not to mention if it is a work zone: posted + 10 is a reckless...

Been there done that learned the hard way...

Oh by the way no radar detectors allowed, will also get you a ticket...

anyone have a good contact for point reduction class?  

Apparently 59 in a 40 is 4 points in VA

How many points do you get on Long Island for porking a 40?

i always used the ticket clinic. they are in evert state (i think)...
now i use cruise control and stay in the middle lane. most of the time..... lol lol lol
i had a blast on my recent road trip where roads were 70.. i miss that. this 55 is not easy!!!

good luck!!

i just got a parking ticket in pittsburgh because i didnt put my license plate in correctly. i sent the info online and they said i still owed it, but they dropped it to $5 instead of $29. still silly, but what can ya do? :)

Had they clocked you at 61, they would be hitting you with reckless and a misdemeanor....

I've been popped twice for doing 76 on 495, both times to it a lawyer to go to court to get them to drop it, over $1k in costs....

So I'd recommend not complaining about 4 points....
