What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a court is required to order a person's motor vehicle

operating privilege be restricted to operating vehicles that are equipped with an

ignition interlock device (IID) if a person commits a second or subsequent offense

related to operating a vehicle while intoxicated (OWI offense) or a first offense while

his or her alcohol concentration is 0.15 or greater, refuses to take a test for

intoxication, or injures or kills a person while operating a vehicle while his or her

alcohol concentration is 0.15 or greater or after he or she has committed a prior OWI

offense.

This bill requires a court to order the operating privileges of a person who

commits any OWI offense, regardless of his or her alcohol concentration, to be

restricted to operating vehicles that are equipped with an ignition interlock device.
