New DUI Ignition Lock Law Goes Into Effect In Florida
(316.1937, F.S.)
Repeat DUI offenders and first-time offenders with a blood
alcohol content over .15 would have to install the devices. The law would also
apply to those who drove under the influence with a child in the car.
The law states that the lock will be installed for six months
for first offenders and at least two years for drivers who habitually drive
under the influence.
The law also states that for a third or subsequent violation,
the offender must complete a DUI treatment course.
The lock will not allow the car to start unless the driver's
blood alcohol content (BAC) is under a certain level. Under the new law, the
driver would have to have an alcohol content under .05 to start the vehicle.
