Chamber Passed·5/5/25

Establishes a mitigating factor for impaired driving cases where the defendant voluntarily installs an ignition interlock system before trial.

This bill establishes a mitigating factor for certain individuals charged with impaired driving who voluntarily equip and operate a motor vehicle with an ignition interlock system prior to trial. The mitigating factor applies if the defendant meets specific conditions, such as holding a valid driver's license, not being involved in a crash resulting in serious injury or death, and not having a high alcohol concentration at the time of the offense.
