What it does

Under current law, a person whose driver’s license is revoked for operating while intoxicated (OWI) is required to install an ignition interlock device (IID) prior to being issued a temporary restricted license (TRL) by the department of transportation (DOT). The IID must be installed on every vehicle owned or operated by the person, or every vehicle operated by the person if the person has had no previous conviction or revocation under Code chapter 321J. Current law also requires a person with a second or subsequent driver’s license revocation for OWI to install an IID for a minimum of one year after reinstatement of a driver’s license other than a TRL.
