What is an Ignition Interlock Device?
Most states require people to install an ignition interlock device after a drunk driving conviction. Voluntary alcohol monitoring options are also available to help guarantee sober driving.
An ignition interlock device (a car breathalyzer) is a small, hand-held breathalyzer installed in your car. The device has a mouthpiece that you blow into before starting your car. With a clean breath sample, you’ll immediately be able to start your car.

After a DUI or DWI conviction, most states require you to get an SR22 and ignition interlock device (IID) to reinstate your license. An ignition interlock is an alcohol detection device (breathalyzer) that connects to your vehicle’s ignition. The breathalyzer analyses your breath alcohol concentration (BrAC). Your car will start only if your breath sample contains no alcohol. In addition to SR-22 or FR-44 insurance, drivers with DUI/DWI convictions will likely require an ignition interlock device. Most states consider blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level and the number of DUI/DWI violations when ordering an IID installation. The IID has a mouthpiece that requires drivers to blow into it. If your breath sample contains alcohol, your vehicle won’t start. Some drivers install an ignition interlock device to help ensure sober driving voluntarily. A voluntary IID installation protects the driver and others on the road from future DUI/DWI violations that could result in injury or death. To reinstate their license after a DUI conviction, drivers must attach an SR-22 or FR-44 certificate to a non-owner insurance policy and file it with the state DMV. Then, to be able to borrow another person’s vehicle to drive, the state will require an ignition interlock device if you don’t own a car. Non-owners must specify a friend or relative to allow the IID installation in their vehicle, and the owner must carry insurance on their car. Do states always require installing an ignition interlock device after a DUI/DWI conviction? After a second or subsequent substance-related conviction, drivers must install an IID in any vehicle they operate. Most states require both an SR-22 (or FR-44) insurance filing and ignition interlock installation and as a condition for license reinstatement. Drivers may not need to install an IID after a first DUI/DWI violation unless the situation warrants it. Each state makes a determination based on the circumstances of each case. The installation cost for ignition interlock devices varies by state and by company. However, you’ll likely pay between $70 and $150 for installation of an ignition interlock device. After the installation, you’ll have a monthly equipment lease between $60 and $100. Fortunately, UltraCar Insurance can help you.
