Default For Those Of Us In Virginia

One of my cop buddies pointed me towards this...

LIS > Code of Virginia > 46.2-1086

§ 46.2-1086. Devices for emission of smoke screens, gas projectors or flame throwers; prohibited.

It shall be a Class 6 felony to install or to aid or abet in installing, in any manner, in or on any motor vehicle any device, appliance, equipment, or instrument of any kind, character, or description, or any part of such device, appliance, equipment, or instrument, designed for generating or emitting smoke, thereby creating what is commonly known as a "smoke screen," or of emitting any gas or flame which may be a hindrance or obstruction to traffic. It shall also be a Class 6 felony to knowingly possess or drive on the highways any motor vehicle so equipped.

Additionally, the driver's license of any person convicted of a violation of this section shall be suspended for six months from the date of conviction.

The provisions of this section shall not apply to vehicles used in applying herbicides, insecticides, or pesticides.

(Code 1950, § 46-309; 1958, c. 541, § 46.1-305; 1962, c. 302; 1989, c. 727.)

and...

LIS > Code of Virginia > 46.2-1087

§ 46.2-1087. Forfeiture of vehicles equipped with smoke projectors, etc.

Any motor vehicle found to be equipped with any device, appliance, equipment, or instrument, as mentioned in § 46.2-1086, or equipped for the installation or attachment of any "smoke screen" or gas or flame emitting device, appliance, equipment, or instrument, as so mentioned, shall be forfeited to the Commonwealth, subject to the rights of an innocent owner and lien holders. No such forfeiture, however, shall take place unless the owner or operator knows that such vehicle is so equipped.

(Code 1950, § 46-310; 1958, c. 541, § 46.1-306; 1989, c. 727.)

I agree 100% but how many times do you see guy's on here wanting to make more smoke. I can honestly say that I try my best not to. If I want I can black out a highway but to me that's just not cool if other people are around

I am with you guys on this it sucks but it was only a matter of time before it started to happen. We just need to help people learn there is a time and place for smoke and its not traffic hour on the highway.
