Kansas has both administrative and criminal penalties for DUI offenders. The legal BAC (blood alcohol content) limit in Kansas is .08 percent, and offenders driving while at or above that BAC risk a DUI conviction. They may be required to pay fines, their license will be revoked, and they may be ordered to attend treatment. Some offenders may be able to regain their driving privileges if they install an ignition interlock device. This guide will share how the IID process works in Kansas.
