Description

Some states allow a person to drive whose license has been suspended or revoked for driving under the influence (DUI) if the driver uses a vehicle equipped with an ignition interlock device. The ignition interlock device wont allow the vehicle to be started if it detects alcohol on your breath. The device may also require additional "rolling retests" while the vehicle is being driven.


If you drive employer-owned vehicles during work hours, the vehicles must be equipped with an interlock device. However, this requirement may usually be waived if your employer signs an Employer Declaration for Ignition Interlock License.


This form is a generic example that may be referred to when preparing such a form for your particular state. It is for illustrative purposes only. Local laws should be consulted to determine any specific requirements for such a form in a particular jurisdiction.

FAQ

Section 316.193, Florida Statutes, mandates ignition interlock devices (IID) be installed on the vehicles of certain persons convicted of Driving Under the Influence (DUI).

Ways people have attempted to bypass the IID include: Using a balloon to blow alcohol-free breath into the device, Having a friend blow a clean breath into the device, Disconnecting the wires on the device, Sucking on a penny, Eating mints or chewing gum, or. Blowing through a filter.

The court may require the use of an approved ignition interlock device for a period of at least 6 continuous months, if the person is permitted to operate a motor vehicle, whether or not the privilege to operate a motor vehicle is restricted, as determined by the court.

Swish Your Mouth with Water Before Testing Swishing your mouth with water will help dissolve the alcohol in your mouth from items such as breath mints, mouthwash, etc. To keep it simple, make sure to swish your mouth with water before any test to eliminate false positive readings on your Device.

So the answer to the question, How long after you stop drinking can you pass an ignition interlock device test? is anywhere from 12 to 24 hours after your last drink. So really, you shouldn't plan to drive unless it's been at least 12 hours since your last drink.

Do interlock devices have GPS? Yes. Depending on the requirements of your state, you may need to install an ignition interlock device with GPS functionality. This information helps track your location with each sample provided to in the event you are restricted by your state to drive in only certain areas.

From the court's perspective, if a person violates ignition interlock, then this could be handled in one of two ways. It could be charged as a violation of a license restriction, which is a separate criminal offense, or it could be charged as a violation of probation.

That is because many toothpaste, mouthwash or mouth rinse products contain alcohol. Another IID manufacturer, SmartStart, explains that a breath test taken immediately after using these products could return a breath alcohol reading as high as 0.25 percent.

Putting a Penny on Your Mouth Before Blowing There are also some genius that said by putting a penny under your tongue will help you to trick the ignition interlock device. They said it is due the copper concentration on the penny will help you change your alcohol level in your blood.
