If I am reading right a driver convicted of DWI is required to have an interlock device placed on a vehicle after reinstatement of their license, regardless of whether they have a vehicle to drive or not. So if you don't have a vehicle you need to get one just to put the interlock device on it. How does that make any sense? If your work requires you to drive a company vehicle then by all means that device should be placed on the company vehicle the convicted employee is to be driving. For that matter any vehicle the convicted person is going to drive should have a device. But if the convicted person is not going to be driving why should they be required to pay for something they would otherwise not use? I think the insurance company is getting a kickback from the interlock device company for this one!

drinking and driving is not good, but those who drink sometimes drive and those who havnt been caught ever think that they are better than someone who has been caught. Also driving your property is not a privilege its a right, above and law.

They want to drink and drive, they don't deserve their license back. Driving is a privilege. You do the crime, you do the time.
