New Washington State DUI Laws for 2011
A new law expands the category of drivers arrested for drunken driving who can apply for a special license to drive with an ignition-interlock device. The device tests for alcohol in their breath before the car will start. Under a 2008 law, only drivers arrested for drunken driving could apply for the device. Now those who have been convicted of vehicular homicide or vehicular assault due to DUI can also apply. Under the underlying law, a person with an interlock license would have the device on their car for either one, 5 or 10 years depending on their record. The new law also requires that a driver with a device have no failed blows on starting their car for four consecutive months before the device can be removed.
