I don't think it's mandatory by law, but it is customary. A baseball player was caught doing 105 on the Beltway and he ended up serving 5 days in jail (though on weekends only, I doubt they would be so nice to a not famous person). And that was in NoVa, I hear judges in RoVa tend do be more harsh about it.

What is mandatory by law, is a reckless driving charge for 20 mph or more above the limit or 80mph or more, both being pretty ridiculous.
