Question:
What happens if I get charged with a second DWI in Virginia?
Answer:
If you’re charged with a second DUI in Virginia, the penalties become more severe. A second DUI in Virginia is a class one misdemeanor, which carries with it up to a year in jail and a $2,500 fine just like a DUI first. Now, the differences are with the mandatory jail time. There’s mandatory jail time attached to a DUI second. If it’s a second within ten years, there’s a mandatory additional ten days in jail. If it’s a second within five years, there’s a mandatory 20 days in jail. Not to mention the fact that courts are more inclined to issue additional jail time when a person has gotten a second offense because they feel as if that person has not “learned a lesson”. As a result, you want to make sure that you want to reach out to an experienced attorney who can help your DUI second charges to make sure that you are getting the best representation possible and so that you are doing your right thing for yourself and your family.
