A: In Virginia, generally speaking, a first offense with no "enhancements" (see #16) will involve a fine of up to $2,500.00, a one year loss of license (with a restricted license available through VASAP), attendance at a DUI education program by VASAP and probation for one year. A short jail sentence may or may not be required; for a second offense, it almost certainly will. Additional punishment may involve community service, ignition interlock devices, AA meetings and/or impounding of the vehicle. Mandatory incarceration applies with certain levels of blood alcohol.
