Default You are the man; i'd been looking through codes, but hadn't found the definitive:

A person convicted under this subsection shall be guilty of a traffic infraction that shall not be a moving violation. Notwithstanding the provisions of ยง 46.2-492, <b>no driver demerit points shall be assessed for any violation of this subsection.</b>

.'. |= No court visit for me, I'm just gonna pay the man.

Default You may have read the wrong section of the code. Smitty's post and yours rely on HOT, not HOV.

However, HOV is about the same, except you do get points for the third and subsequent offence.

HOV Statute re Points - Notwithstanding the provisions of ยง 46.2-492, no driver demerit points shall be assessed for any violation of this section; except that persons convicted of third, fourth, or subsequent violations within five years of a first offense committed in Planning District Eight shall be assessed three demerit points for each such violation<ul><li><a href="http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+33.1-46.2">VA code re HOV</a></li></ul>

Default Here's the HOV Answer (HOT is different)

ยง 33.1-46.2.

Any person driving a motor vehicle in a designated HOV lane in violation of this section shall be guilty of a traffic infraction which shall not be a moving violation and on conviction shall be fined $50. However, violations committed within the boundaries of Planning District Eight shall be punishable as follows:

For a first offense, by a fine of $50;

For a second offense within a period of five years from a first offense, by a fine of $200;

For a third offense within a period of five years from a first offense, by a fine of $500; and

For a fourth or subsequent offense within a period of five years from a first offense, by a fine of $1,000.

Upon a conviction under this section, the court shall furnish to the Commissioner of the Department of Motor Vehicles in accordance with ยง 46.2-383 an abstract of the record of such conviction which shall become a part of the person's driving record. Notwithstanding the provisions of ยง 46.2-492, no driver demerit points shall be assessed for any violation of this section; except that persons convicted of third, fourth, or subsequent violations within five years of a first offense committed in Planning District Eight shall be assessed three demerit points for each such violation.

Note: Planning District 8 is Northern Virginia.
