New Virginia Speed Limit Law May Increase Likelihood of Reckless Driving Charge

On July 1, 2010 a new Virginia law went into effect that allows the speed limit to be raised to 70 mph. The speed limit has already been increased on a section of I-295. In early July 2010, CBS6 interviewed experienced Virginia reckless driving lawyer Bob Battle about the new law. As Bob explained to CBS6 Reporter Mark Holmgren, the definition of reckless driving in Virginia has not changed. Driving 81 miles per hour - just 11 miles over the speed limit - will get you a reckless driving charge, not a simple speeding ticket.

In his article, "Speeding Costs You More in Virginia Than in Maryland" Michael Dresser of the Baltimore Sun wrote, "Battle knows his stuff when it comes to serious traffic charges in Virginia..." and "...Battle is a lawyer who specializes in getting out-of-staters off the hook for reckless driving, so naturally he urges people to hire an attorney when facing such charges. Vested interest aside, that's probably good advice. Prosecutors don't like to cut bargains with nonlawyers."
