§ 46.1-423.1. If any person, having been convicted three times of
any offense or offenses set forth below, within a period of * ten years, be
again convicted of any one of such offenses within such * ten year period,
he shall, in addition to the penalty otherwise prescribed by law for such
offense, be fined not less than one hundred dollars nor more than one
thousand dollars and confined in jail not less than three months nor more
than twelve months. The offenses for a fourth conviction of which such
penalties may be imposed are the following: violations within Virginia of

viction results from a single act or omission, then only the first such con-
viction shall constitute an offense.
