Virginia law mandates the forfeiture of vehicles equipped with smoke projectors or devices that emit smoke, gas, or flames, unless the owner is unaware of such modifications. Additionally, it regulates the use of air conditioning units in vehicles, requiring approval from the Superintendent and safe refrigerants. These provisions aim to ensure safety and compliance with environmental standards.
