Breath Tests Get Support In DUI Wars

Judges may have another way to help repeat DUI offenders sober up for good.

 

Instead of blowing into a machine which keep their cars from starting, they may have to get their breath tested twice a day.

 

The proposal, approved by a House committee last week, would allow judges to place repeat DUI offenders into a new program, known elsewhere as “24/7 Sobriety,” instead of having ignition interlock devices installed on their vehicles. State law currently requires interlock devices for drivers with more than one DUI.
