Each jurisdiction has a different fee structure. But I would think it would be under $75.00.

I have realized over the years that Virginia is aggressively pursuing the status of worst state in the US. Virginia - where everyone is an outlaw except the cops. What is the cop-to-ordinary-citizen ratio in Virginia? It is probably the highest in the nation. What happens when you don't pay those fines? You are a criminal and will go to jail! Cite the recent news of 1.4 million outstanding warrants in Pennsylvania (population 12,440,621)? 1 for every 8.9 persons! I'd be willing to bet the ratio is higher in Virginia.

We would be better off to have a mother drown her kids like Susan Smith did to shame S. Carolina or have a pedophile priest scandal that many states have had. This makes Virginia look like the worst state of all, even worse than D.C and in fact the laws make us the absolute worst. What an embarrassment and scandal. It figures some know it all, arrogant prick from Springfield,Va would be behind this. Springfield the rudest people in the entire state and a city known for not allowing you to do a U-turn ANYWHERE!!! Fat chance those elitists will vote out Abo.
