Any person violating the provisions of this chapter shall be guilty of a minor misdemeanor for a first offense, and guilty of a misdemeanor of the fourth degree for a second or subsequent offense. Every violation of this chapter shall constitute a separate offense. Violations occurring simultaneously shall be prosecuted as separate offenses, but two violations at the same time shall not require that the accused actually be given a separate sentence of imprisonment. However, in case of a third offense, the court shall have the discretion to do so.
