Hi all,
I was on my way from PA to VIR for the Viperdays event, when I got pulled over going 84mph in a 60mph zone. In VA, anything over 20mph over the speed limit OR anything over 80mph is considered reckless driving. Usually, I think you're not allowed to prepay and you have to appear in court. The officer checked off a box which allows me to prepay and NOT appear in court. Is this still a full reckless driving charge? Can my license be suspended or anything?
and bottom line... Should I hire a lawyer??
Thanks for any help....
