Don't get a traffic ticket in VA!

[mdoyle]

From reading the article it only applies to VA residents, WTF? I've never heard of a traffic fine system that treats residents differently, especially giving out-of-staters a break, usually it's the opposite.

The fine for eluding an officer is lower than speeding? That makes no sense under any ethical doctrine and clearly points the fine schedule in the direction of money-grabbing instead of it's proper function as a deterrent.
