How Ignition Interlock Devices Work
An ignition interlock device is a breath testing unit connected to your vehicle ignition system. Before the car starts, you provide a breath sample. If the device detects alcohol above the allowed level, the vehicle will not start. During longer trips, the system may request rolling retests to support continued compliance.
- Breath test before starting the vehicle
- Random rolling retests during travel
- Event logs that track results and compliance
- Records sent to your assigned agency
During your first visit, we walk you through the reporting process and what each event means so you always know what your responsibilities are.
Who Uses Ignition Interlock Devices
Most installations follow a DUI-related suspension or court requirement, but some drivers also use ignition interlock systems voluntarily for safety, accountability, or family reasons. No matter why you need the system, we approach every installation professionally and respectfully.
- Drivers completing a DUI-related requirement
- Parents adding an extra layer of control for teen drivers
- Fleet managers needing alcohol-free operation
- Drivers using the device voluntarily for peace of mind
