Michigan Ignition Interlock

Okay, the time has come where I’ve been approved for a restricted license with an ignition interlock device.

I am beyond grateful to for this opportunity and to continue moving through this process.

That being said, does anyone have any advice regarding the ignition interlock devices?

I had a portable SmartStart breathalyzer for a couple months before I was put on probation so I have some experience but not the same as an IID.

I’m kind of nervous because I don’t know exactly what to expect. I do not drink at all so I am not worried about that aspect, but I am curious what other things constitute a violation?

Are there certain companies that are more reliable? It sounds like SmartStart is a good company to go through. I personally never had any issues with them but again it was not an IID, I’m not sure how much the reliability differs.

Any advice/feedback is appreciated.
