Virginia's Department of Motor Vehicles is shifting gears over a controversial registration fee.

[SUPER=03-Roanoke/August]

A new law that went into affect July first authorized the D-M-V to collect two dollars to go towards Virginia's 400th anniversary celebration.
The fee was already added onto your vehicle registration fee.
If you didn't want to pay it, you had to check a box and then deduct two dollars from the amount.
Many Virginians complained the measure was confusing.
So today, the D-M-V announced it will revise the form to make it easier to read and stop automatically adding the two bucks to the bill.
