The Affiliate testified in opposition to mandatory ignition interlock requirements for all individuals convicted of driving under the influence of liquor or drugs.  This legislation would have taken away the ability of judges to apply individualized sentences, requiring ignition interlock devices both for first time offenders and those convicted of driving under the influence of substances for which the interlock system could not test.  Neither bill made it out of committee this year.
