Ignition Interlock Device – IID

Section 316.193, Florida Statutes requires ignition interlock devices to be installed on the vehicle of persons convicted of DUI, upon eligibility of reinstatement for a permanent or restricted driver license. The IID prevents the start of the vehicle with a breath alcohol content (BAC) of .05 if convicted after July 01, 2002 and a BAC of .025 if convicted after July 01, 2013. Persons receiving BAC violation letters from DHSMV in Tallahassee will be sent to their local DUI program for monitoring service.
