Ignition interlock device

In Nebraska, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-498.01 provides that an arresting peace officer who serves a notice of revocation on behalf of the director shall also provide information, prepared and approved by the director, describing how to request an administrative license revocation hearing or apply for an ignition interlock permit or another permit the statute names. Where the statute instead has the director serve the notice by mail, the director also provides that hearing information and an application for an ignition interlock permit.

In Nebraska, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-498.02 provides that a person operating a motor vehicle under an ignition interlock permit issued under the Nebraska sections it lists shall only operate a motor vehicle equipped with an ignition interlock device. The same statute provides that all such permits shall indicate that the permit is not valid for the operation of any commercial motor vehicle.

In Idaho, Idaho Code § 18-8002A provides that a person who has been served with a notice of suspension and notice of the requirement to install the ignition interlock system after submitting to an evidentiary test may request an administrative hearing on the suspension before a hearing officer designated by the department. The statute provides that the hearing may be held only on the suspension and not on the requirement to install an ignition interlock system.

In Idaho, Idaho Code § 18-8002A requires the hearing request to be in writing, to be received by the department within a period the statute measures from service of both notices, and to include the issue or issues to be raised.

In Arkansas, A.C.A. § 5-65-205 directs the Office of Driver Services to suspend or revoke the driving privilege of an arrested person who refuses to submit to a chemical test under the subchapter. Within its provision on refusing a chemical test of breath, saliva or urine, the statute provides that the office may issue an ignition interlock restricted license under a separate section of Arkansas law immediately, but only to a person who is arrested for a first offense under this statute and only when the person is arrested for operating or being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle or motorboat while intoxicated by the ingestion of alcohol.

Deadlines, limits and penalty ranges are set by each state’s statutes, so this page does not state them. Each state page shows them with the official source and the date they were verified — or says plainly that a figure has not been confirmed yet.
