FAQ
Conviction of a DUI offense will result in suspension of your driver's license and other penalties in addition to the administrative suspension. By operating a vehicle on Virginia highways, you have consented to a breath or blood test upon arrest for DUI.
In the Commonwealth of Virginia, a first DUI/DWI offense is a Class 1 misdemeanor under Virginia Code Section (§) 18.2-270, which outlines the penalties of up to a year in jail and as much as a $2,500 fine with a mandatory $250 minimum.
If a person is convicted of a first-offense DUI they will be facing a 12-month loss of license following a first-offense DUI in Virginia. The person will also be required to complete ASAP, which is the Alcohol Safety Action Program. Lastly, there is a fine of generally $300 to $500.
Jail-Related Penalties for DUI If it is a standard first offense DUI with a BAC of 0.14 or below, the odds are very strong that they will not get any jail time in Virginia. However, even if it is the first offense, if a person's BAC is 0.15 or higher, they are looking at mandatory minimum jail time.
Under the changed law, you may apply for a restricted license that allows you to drive for any reason if you meet all of the following requirements: Your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) was 0.15 percent or less. This was your first DUI conviction.
Drunk driving suspects can expect to spend at least two hours answering questions, being fingerprinted and photographed, and submitting to chemical testing of the driver's blood alcohol content (BAC). A driver could spend a few hours before they are released, or it may take up to a few days.
First Time DUI Penalties Up to one year in jail. Up to $2,500 in fines. A mandatory alcohol education class. A mandatory one-year driver's license suspension.
After a person submits a breath sample that is 0.08 or higher, their license is administratively suspended for seven days, and during that seven days, they are not allowed to drive for any reason.
Drivers may end a case in a matter of days if they plead guilty or immediately accept a plea bargain offered by the prosecution. DUI cases that go to trial can take over a year to resolve in some cases. DUI cases are often broken up into different stages.
