Description
Suspension of driver's license for nonpayment of fines or costs. Repeals the requirement that the driver's license of a person convicted of any violation of the law who fails or refuses to provide for immediate payment of fines or costs be suspended. The bill also removes a provision allowing the court to require a defendant to present a summary prepared by the Department of Motor Vehicles of the other courts in which the defendant also owes fines and costs. The bill requires the Commissioner of the Department of Motor Vehicles to return or reinstate any person's driver's license that was suspended prior to July 1, 2019, solely for nonpayment of fines or costs. Such person does not have to pay a reinstatement fee. This bill incorporates SB 10, SB 514, and SB 814 and is identical to HB 1196. Read the Bill »

Comments
I'm fascinated that it took a federal racketeering charge against a federal judge and his entire family and over 15 years worth of work exposing the two commissioners of DMV and DSs to get this even submitted to the legislature. The acts of treason committed against the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia exceeds comprehension! For anyone who's paying attention this should be passed immediately and fines costs fees and restitution for incarceration of NON ARRESTABLE Infractions of over 177000 Virginia's jaiedl for debt in a 5-year period alone, should be paid to each of the victims of this criminal RICO between DSSandDMV
