Reply to comment by sleevieb in Have a court date for reckless driving 83/60 in Amelia county. by [deleted]

You have to be going 20+ over the speed limit to get a reckless here. That’s obnoxious, and definitely warrants jail time in some circumstances.

they changed it to from 15 over

I would agree if it weren't for the many speed traps/counties. Even the recent change to 85+ and 20 over is more in line with the state but when you consider speed limits have been 80 since the 70s

Hopewell's million dollar mile just south of here has drawn the ire of the nation, including our own senators.

I agree for speed traps with sudden speed changes for no reason, but we don’t really have those in RVA, at least not that I know of in the city proper.
