Under a new law eff. 7/1/26, Va. courts can mandate the installation of ISAP technology in vehicles of drivers caught speeding excessively (over 100mph), rather than suspending their licenses. The technology will monitor & collect speed data to be sent to the courts for review.

[ABC 13 News - WSET @ABC13News]

Virginia has become the first state in the nation to implement the Intelligent Speed Assistant Program (ISAP) as a measure to combat excessive speeding.

Know who to call in case you end up somewhere alcohol is being served to those under 21. VA has a zero tolerance law for those under 21 who drink and drive.

[VA Chiefs of Police @vachiefs]

Our Virginia Highway Safety Committee is meeting today with reps from @VADMV, @VTTINEWS, @VaDOT, and @VDHgov to review new crash reporting & speed monitoring tech, road projects, child passenger safety, and legislation.

Gov. Glenn Youngkin has signed a bill that will require all vehicle passengers, including those in the backseat, to wear a seat belt while driving in Virginia. The current law only requires passengers in the front seat to wear seat belts.
