Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • One occasion of driving an automobile may give rise to multiple convictions. The test of whether there are separate acts sustaining several offenses is whether the same evidence is required to sustain them. While Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-294.1 prohibits convictions of both driving under the influence and reckless driving growing out of the same act or acts, § 19.2-294 applies only when "the same act" is a violation of two or more statutes.
