How are ignition interlock devices used in Ohio DUI / OVI cases? I'm Shawn Dominy, I'm a DUI / OVI lawyer in Columbus, Ohio, and this video is going to answer that question.

An ignition interlock device is a mechanism which is installed in the ignition of your vehicle, and it looks like a straw coming out of it, into which you must blow for the car to start. When you blow into the mouthpiece, if there’s any alcohol in your breath, the car won’t start. Ignition interlocks can also be set to do what’s called a rolling retest, and that means, as you’re driving down the road, you get prompted to breathe into the mouthpiece, and if you either don’t breathe into the mouthpiece, or there’s alcohol on your breathe, the car will actually shut down.

Ignition interlocks are being used more and more in Ohio OVI cases. They are often used as a condition of probation. They’re often used as a condition of bond. And they’re also used as a condition of limited driving privileges. So, if your license has been suspended and the judge gives you limited driving privileges during that suspension, often, a condition will be that you use the ignition interlock device. That means, if you operate a vehicle which is not equipped with the ignition interlock device, you’re in violation of the conditions of either your bond, your probation, or limited deriving privileges, all of which are bad news.

An OVI itself is bad news, and I know when you’ve been charged with OVI, it can be overwhelming. And for that reason, what I recommend is the first thing you do is to educate yourself. There are more videos like this one on my website, and the website also has several pages of information about OVI topics, and there’s also a book which you can download for free. As you educate yourself about your situation, I hope that you find this video and those other resources are helpful.
