New breathalyzer test with camera


Some DUI defendants qualify for a breath activated ignition interlock device (BAIID). The device allows you to drive as long as you blow into a breathalyzer. If you are intoxicated, the car will not start.
Some drivers evade this requirement by getting someone else to blow into the device for them. But no more. As of July 1, 2013, the Illinois Secretary of State has implemented new rules that require the BAIID be equipped with a camera. Each time you blow, the camera will take your picture.
Not only does the picture insure that it’s you blowing into the device, it also eliminates false claims that some other intoxicated person tried to start your car. Any failure to activate the device is reported to the Secretary of State and can result in additional penalties.
