Ignition Interlock System
An ignition interlock system is a mechanism installed in your motor vehicle. Prior to starting your vehicle, you breathe into the interlock, and it measures the concentration of alcohol in your breath. If the concentration of alcohol in your breath is over a legal limit, the motor vehicle will not start.
When is Ignition Interlock Necessary. If a individual is convicted of a second OVI DUI offense within six years, a judge must order ignition interlock as a condition of restricted driving privileges. A judge may also order ignition interlock as a condition of restricted driving privileges for a first OVI DUI conviction and as a condition of restricted driving privileges on an Administrative License Suspension.
In the event that you are required to have an ignition interlock device, you will be obligated to pay an installation fee and a regular rental fee.
Violations of ignition interlock orders consist of operating a vehicle without the ignition interlock, circumventing or tampering with the ignition interlock, or having a prohibited concentration of alcohol in your breath, as measured by the ignition interlock device. If a judge determines there has been a violation of an ignition interlock order, the judge may order the use of a Secure Remote Alcohol Monitoring device.
