What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill allows a court to order a person who improperly refused to take a sobriety test or who committed certain offenses related to drunken driving to participate in a program that closely monitors participants for drug and alcohol use (sobriety program). Under the bill, a court may order a person who would otherwise be required to install an ignition interlock device (IID) in his or her vehicle, and whose operating privileges would be restricted to operating vehicles so equipped, to participate in the sobriety program.
Under the bill, a person who is ordered to participate in the program may obtain an occupational driver's license and may operate a vehicle that is not equipped with an IID so long as he or she participates in the sobriety program. If he or she completes the program or otherwise stops participating, he or she must install an IID on his or her vehicle and may not operate a vehicle that is not so equipped. Under the bill, the time period during which a person who participates in a sobriety program, combined with the time period during which the person's operating privilege is restricted to operating vehicles equipped with an IID, must be at least one year.
