In the state of VA is there a way around the 500$ fee they charge to reinstate your Driver's License?

I had been w/o car insurance for awhile due to being laid of and unable to afford it... long story short i am able to afford to get car insurance now as well as the 145$ reinstatement fee for my license but there is NO way that i can do and pay the 500$ fee they charge as a statutory fee as well.. im just getting back on my feet an i need help and ideas... not to be rude but please DO NOT GIVE ME THE INFO THAT I HAVE ALREADY READ FROM DMV WEBSITE...
