IGNITION INTERLOCK:
It can never be stressed enough, especially around the holiday season,
Don’t Drink And Drive. Between 1999 and 2000, alcohol-related collisions
were responsible for 26 fatalities. The Ontario Government is taking increased
measures to ensure the safety of our roads. Anyone who commits an impaired
driving offence on or after Dec. 23rd, 2001, and is subsequently convicted,
will be subject to the Ignition Interlock Program. After serving the current
provincial sanctions, those who are eligible to have their driver’s
licences reinstated will have an ignition interlock condition placed on
their driver’s licence for at least one year, meaning that an ignition
device must be installed in any vehicle the offender drives. Before starting
the vehicle, the driver must blow into the device. If the driver’s
blood alcohol concentration is above the pre-set limit, the vehicle will
not start. Drivers subject to an ignition interlock condition are responsible
for all installation and maintenance costs of the device.
