White v. Commonwealth

Facts:

Defendant was convicted of eluding a police officer and driving while intoxicated. Defendant argued that his conviction for eluding a police officer constituted a conviction for reckless driving, thereby requiring the trial court, in obedience to Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-294.1, to have dismissed a driving while intoxicated charge against him which arose out of the “same acts.” On appeal, the court affirmed the convictions.
