Every person convicted of reckless driving under the provisions of this article is guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor. B. Every person convicted of reckless driving under the

The punishment for every person convicted of reckless driving under the provisions of this article who, when he committed the offense, was in violation of §46.2-1078.1 shall include a mandatory minimum fine of $250. 2. That the provisions of this act may result in a net increase in periods of imprisonment or commitment.
