PURPOSE:

The 2002 Legislature amended Section 316.193, F.S., to require the ignition interlock device to be installed on the vehicles used by certain persons convicted of driving under the influence (DUI).  The purpose of the proposed rule action is to establish a process to review cases in which drivers with documented medical issues are unable to utilize the ignition interlock device at the designated setting.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule action allows for the review of cases in which drivers with documented medical issues are unable to utilize the ignition interlock device.  The proposed rule allows for consideration of a reduction in the allowable minimum breath sample for convicted persons unable to provide an adequate breath sample at the standard setting, and provides conditions for the license reinstatement of convicted persons that are otherwise incapable of properly operating the ignition interlock device.
