PROCEDURES FOR ISSUING AND SERVING PROCESS IN OVERWEIGHT VEHICLE CASES (§
46.2-1136)

Any officer or size and weight compliance agent authorized to enforce overweight
vehicle laws may issue a citation for a violation of such laws. Such officer may
also serve an attachment summons issued by a judge or magistrate in connection
with a weight violation.
		Service of any such citation shall be made upon the driver of the motor
vehicle involved in the violation. Such service on the driver shall have the
same legal force and validity as if served within the Commonwealth personally
upon the owner, operator, or other person charged with the weight violation,
whether such owner, operator, or other person charged is a resident or
nonresident.
