What is an Ignition Interlock device? Will I be forced to have one installed on my car?

An interlock is a device that is installed in your car that is about the size of a cell phone with a mouthpiece on it. The device connects a motor vehicle ignition to a breath analyzer that measures a driver’s blood alcohol and prevents a motor vehicle ignition from starting if a driver’s blood alcohol level exceeds the calibrated setting on the device. A driver must blow into the device in order to start the car, and then periodically while driving when ever the device beeps.

In Maryland, a driver may request a modification of any non-mandatory suspension that will allow the driver to drive with an interlock. Other individuals who may be required to participate in the ignition interlock program are, individual’s whose licenses are suspended or revoked for a conviction of DUI, individual’s ordered to participate by the court, an individual violates an alcohol restriction on his/her license. A person under 21 convicted of DUI may be required to participate in the ignition interlock program for a period of not more than three years to retain his/her license. An individual whose license is suspended for a fourth or greater offense of DUI is considered a habitual offender and that person’s license may not be reinstated unless the individual participates in the interlock program for at least 24 months.

Can I appeal the ruling of the ALJ at the MVA hearing? Will an appeal delay the suspension of my license?

A licensee may appeal from a decision by the administration to the circuit court within 30 days of the decision. It is not guaranteed that the administration will allow a delay of the license suspension pending appeal. The licensee must request a stay of the suspension in writing, and the administration then has the discretion to grant or deny the stay.
