Interstates allow up to 70 mph. Residential streets typically enforce 25-35 mph limits. Mountain roads and work zones carry reduced limits with higher fines for violations.
The legal BAC limit is 0.08% for most drivers, 0.04% for commercial drivers, and just 0.02% for drivers under 21. A first offense carries up to 6 months in jail and a 6-month license revocation.
West Virginia bans holding or using a phone without hands-free technology while driving. Texting, emailing, and social media use at the wheel are all illegal — violations add points and fines to your record.
