I had an alcohol violation that requires an Interlock as part of my reinstatement, what do I do now? |
| A. |
After you have confirmed your eligibility to reinstate and that an Ignition Interlock is part of your reinstatement requirements, contact an approved vendor for pricing and locations. Once you have selected a vendor, have the Interlock installed and obtain the following:
- Restricted License Ignition Interlock Agreement Affidavit DR2058
- Installation Certificate (issued by the Interlock provider)
- Application Form DR2870
- Payment of $95 (check or money order made payable to Department of Revenue)
- SR22 from your insurance company
- Required Alcohol and Drug Education document
- Certificate (form DR 2598) or Discharge Referral Summary (DRS) for a Level II Education and Therapy program showing completion of courses or an Affidavit of Enrollment (form DR 2643)
Note: The Certificate or DRS requirement is determined by the associated BAC or the number of alcohol violations on your record (Multiple offenders or BAC of 0.17 and above requires Level II DRS or Affidavit of Enrollment).
Important: All alcohol reinstatements are processed by mail only. When possible, you should mail the complete set of documents together to ensure that your reinstatement is processed in a timely manner. Allow up to 20 business days for your reinstatement to be completed. A letter will be mailed to the address on your application confirming that your reinstatement is complete and that you can contact a Driver’s License office to schedule your written and drive test in your Ignition Interlock equipped vehicle.
