Program requires ignition interlock devices for repeat DUI offenders

Posted on July 1st, 2010 No Comments

According to a report released by the Wisconsin State Patrol, repeat drunk-driving offenders may be required to install ignition-interlock devices on their vehicles to prevent them from driving if they have consumed alcohol. The program will require repeat offenders to pay for the installation and the monitoring of the device.

Persons who have an ignition interlock device installed in their vehicle are typically required to blow into the device before the car will start. The driver may also be required to blow into the device while driving, and will gradually bring the vehicle to a stop if alcohol is detected.

Accidents caused by drunk drivers can have a serious effect on the health and livelihood of you and your family. If you have been involved in an accident with a drunk driver, contact the Waukesha drunk driving accident attorneys of Habush Habush & Rottier, S.C. at 800-242-2874 today.
