I do not live in Virginia. Is this law actively enforced? Lots of things are "technically illegal".
Anecdotal, but a friend of mine was ticketed for it within the first week it went into effect. She (understandably) assumed that being stopped at a stop light was acceptable. That said, I'm not aware of any enforcement since then and wouldn't be surprised if they deliberately only enforced it right after it took effect.
Still wouldn't risk it, though.
