No, they are a completely different sate with different size regs.
VA does not have a weighted system for tags, they have a commercial license plate for over 26K lbs, if I remember rightly.
THIS IS WHERE THE CONFUSION COMES IN, BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENT STATES.
Va only requires a CDL-B for loads over 26K till 40K lbs GCVW, allowing Dumptrucks to get away with the less costly CDL-B licenses, except the drop down axle dumps which can weigh up to 50K lbs they need the CDL-A.
VA recognizes the 108 inch overwidth limit also, and the VA SP have always been more enforcing than NC troopers about this matter.
See how it can get confusing, it's because the Fed's haven't taken control of weight and overwidth limits like they should of when they built the Intestates.
Don't get me started on IFTA and Federal Highway Inspections.
