Very unlikely, since Va. Code Sec. 18.2-271.1E which governs the
issuance of a restricted license in a DUI case, says nothing regarding
the court having discretion to substitute the ignition interlock system for
a restricted license. Indeed, any references to the ignition interlock system
in the relevant statutes is in the context of making it a requirement in addition
to the restricted license.
