Governor Timothy M. Kaine issued the following statement today in response to Henrico County General District Court Judge Archer L. Yeatts, III's ruling that abusive driver fees are unconstitutional:

"The issue of the constitutionality of the abusive driver fees is in litigation, and it is not appropriate for me to comment on pending litigation. Whether the courts find the law constitutional or not, as a policy matter I am committed to addressing the concerns Virginians have raised about this law, including its application to out-of-state drivers."
