If this is the case it must be something new which would be a good thing because there is someone getting pulled over daily driving on a suspended license and I have yet to hear of it being towed in when caught. There are several people in this county driving without a license and have been pulled over and allowed to leave. Farm tags all over the place and nothing is done.
Need to check out farm use
What happens if the person is a minor? there have been many complaints in Greene of minors driving up and down the road without a drivers license, no insurance and unregistered vehicle and nothing seems to be happening. οΏΌ
And start checking these farm used tags
Spend less time focused on this and more on the real problems. This town is littered with creeps and drug addicts and THIS is the thing we are fighting to end? Seems like Greene County, Va. Sheriff's Office is only interested in low hanging fruit if you ask me.
After July this years don't think farm use tags will be nolonger to use ?
Ridiculous that everyone doesn’t already know this, of course it’s against the law
Greene Co Police department is a joke. They got all the criminals as informants LMAO. Clowns
So true
It’s horrible on bacon hollow rd.. If I thought I could get away with speed bumps I would. Kids are flying down the road doing at least 60 or 70 coming down the mountain, kids and animals don’t stand a chance! I’ve even had kids on 4 wheelers and dirt bikes ride my butt, if I slam on brakes for a deer in front on me it would kill them.. when you politely ask them to respect the rules and drive safe for their safety they flip you off.. it’s ridiculous! My kids love riding their bikes and skates on our country back road, but they can’t for fear of getting run over! Calling and complaining doesn’t do any good, because they keep doing it so you give up! Let that be me or one of mine, I’d be in jail! Sorry if truth hurts, but it’s ridiculous!
F the police, bunch of killers, road pirates with immunity for their constant crimes that are literally on video. F them, pieces of trash!

I’ve got cops on my dash cam going 65 and 70 through the 45 zone by tractor supply but if you call and say something they say well just because the lights wasn’t on doesn’t mean they wasn’t going to a call and I no that’s bull and I’m not a hater I respect law enforcement they put their life on the line everyday but same rules should apply to them as everyone else Greene county rights more speeding tickets than any of the surrounding counties and that’s a fact there’s a lot of stuff around town that needs to be addressed and plenty of drunk in public tickets could be wrote but it doesn’t happen case most of these people already live off the county or the government so they don’t get tickets cause the sheriff department knows they not going to pay them no way so they keep pulling over the working man and stick it to him cause they no he going to pay it
Can you do something about the drivers with cell phones, jeesh!, its always about speed, never about phones in their faces! Just my thoughts. . . .
Also, why do half the drivers in Greene refuse to use turn signals anymore?? They just slam on the brakes and turn. No warning. And on the opposite side of speeding, people love camping in the left lane. The left lane is for PASSING. It’s dangerous to have to pass on the right. But I’m forced to constantly. Last week, I almost got hit 2 times in the same night. I’m a double turn lane people came over into my lane and almost hit me. If I wouldn’t have been paying attention and didn’t lay on my horn, and slam the brakes. There would’ve been a collision. In both circumstances. This is coming from someone who’s had a licenses for a little over a year.
Those dump truck turning onto 29, right before lowes, don't give a darn! I can't count the number of times I've been coming through, going the speed limit and they just pull out in front like I'm not there. I know I'm not the only one.
The officers need to be monitored they abuse their power
The sheriff don't have ligh single lights on his vehicle
Thank you for your hard work.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for keeping madison road safe ππ½ππ½
Thank you
Yes, Preddy Creek!. West Rosewood Drive back and forth to Birch ct is like a speedway
Would love to have yall come through preddy creek subdivision!
Maybe come on Main Street they are always flying by my apartment.
So general consensus is it's all the time every where...so step it up to constant enforcement and get the dump trucks and tractor trailer trucks too... think of how low our taxes would be the money potential is huge...
Moore rd needs to be monitored too.
Thank you. 29 is the worst
Im curious about the cops that go 40 over to catch someone going 10 over… π₯±
Great job but unfortunately you have to keep it up and don't wait for complaints...

π for the correct balance of mercy and consequence. π that everyone will truly learn from this heartbreaking experience. Our youth must understand that actions have consequences. Sometimes those consequences can follow us for many years. Some decisions we can't come back from. May this be a season where God's voice is heard and hearts will be drawn closer to him.

Glad Sheriff's dept, keeps public protected,served and informed, Glad to see DUIs were minimal, also
You all were busy keeping us safe. Thank you what you do.
Doing a great job, keep it up, I’m surprised that there was only 6 DWI’s. I figured it would have been more.
Thanks for all the hard work!!
2566 calls for service, that is an average of 88 calls a day,3.6 calls per hour. If you figure that four hours during that period as down time that that means a call every 15 minutes. For a small county that is very steady. Congratulations to our Sheriffs department for serving us so well.
Thank you for your service.
That is flipping awesome information...go compare that to big cities nearby who do nothing ...and I mean absolutely nothing ..which can mean only one thing they are part of the problem .... Greene County thank you for what you do to keep my Mama and family safe ... love you!!!!!
Thank you for all you do for Greene.
Great job GCSO. You are way too busy. You need more Deputies and Dispatchers.

Thank you for all you do to keep children safe, Thank you for keeping our roads safe. The cameras would be nice all the time to help with the on going speeding all the time. Praying for yall safety. God bless you all.
Thanks for putting the children first. Brings awareness for safety. Teaches safety. Holds those accountable who don't put safety of children first.
Ruckersville Elementary School while flashing lights is 35 and with no flashing light 55. Am I correct?
π«‘ππ
Yay a pile upβΊοΈ
Will the lights be flashing during those times to remind us to slow down? Thanks.
Thank you for clarifying the grace mileage of the cameras. I have been stressing a calibration error of a mile or two would get me a fine. π³
Who issues the ticket? Is it a private party with jurisdiction in the county? Is this just like when you donate on the phone and a huge percentage goes to the private companies? Is it constitutional for a private individual to issue tickets?
I am just curious about one thing it said during the trial. Or whatever you call it most of the violators were from out of the county or out of state. Will those people be out of the county or out of state? Also get these fines
I drove through there yesterday, the signs that indicate the new photo enforcement are really small. Considering you can’t see the schools, it’s clearly a highway, might you have more signage indicating it’s a school zone?
The police admit these are to generate revenue not increase safety. Go look up how much Harrisonburg made off of fines from the camera they setup heading downtown. It’s pure insane (2.5 million) and it’s obvious there reasoning behind it. No ticket camera is protecting anyone in immediate danger from speeding in a protected zone.
Does this (speed zone) apply on days school is closed (holidays, weekend), even when school zone lights not flashing, or applicable 7 days a week regardless of whether school is closed, or flashing lights not operating π§
Is there a court date to fight the legality of the ticket, or are you just screwed? I can see that there could be questions of the camera/radar accuracy, last calibration, fog/rain, and other mitigating factors. That being said, I've not had a moving violation since 1993. I'm just curious.
There are many days, holidays, teacher work days when school is out, and the lights are still flashing, will there be someone who pays greater attention to this? Or will they just let the lights flash and give tickets too?
If school is out and lights are on you will not get a ticket
All it is so you don’t block intersections
I thought that cameras had been deemed unconstitutional?? They have been tried repeatedly across the country and ultimately removed.
Govt. Using surveillance cameras to police the citizens is a bad idea.You might want to look at China and how they watch every move their people make.

Sounds like poor planning on the counties part. You put a 2 lane highway in for people to transit through, but you have 3 schools spread out along said route that result in 3 different speed traps. If anyone receives a fine, it should be the planning department. I have now removed Greene County from the list of places to buy a home.

The traffic cameras at Rio road in Cville were removed because they were found unconstitutional, fining license plates without confirming drivers. How is this any different? is it legal? Plenty of people loan cars to family and friends, this will probably end with some sort of law suit.
Why is there a 10mph grace? just set the speed limit to 45 with no cameras!
10 over is too much. 20 or more over and you should lose your license for at least a month. Also need this on 29 between blue ridge cafe and 33. That’s where the real problem is.
It’s a shame that so many Americans will be okay with a surveillance state.They will beg for it in the name of safety.Safety is killing the freedoms of this country.Every totalitarian murderous dictator started with for your safety.
