Approved March 7, 1960

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 46.1-423 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted
as follows: _

§ 46.1-423. When any person shall be convicted of reckless driving
for exceeding a speed of sixty-five or seventy-five miles per hour as the
case may be upon the highways of this State under § 46.1-190 (i) or
§ 46.1-190 (1), then in addition to any other penalties provided by law,
except in those cases for which revocation of licenses is provided in
§ 46.1-417, the operator’s or chauffeur’s license of such person shall be
suspended by the court or judge for a period of not less than sixty days
nor more than six months. In case of conviction the court or judge shall
order the surrender of the license to the court where it shall be disposed
of in accordance with the provisions of § 46.1-425. Where the conviction
is a second conviction which would require revocation under the provi-
sions of § 46.1-417, the court shall suspend the operator’s or chauffeur’s
license of such person and thereupon transmit the same to the Division of
Motor Vehicles as provided by law. If such person so convicted has not
obtained a license required by Chapter 5 (§ 46.1-348 et seq.) of this title
or is a nonresident, such court * shall direct in the judgment of conviction
that * such person shall not drive or operate any motor vehicle in this
State for a period of not less than sixty days nor more than six months.
