Louisiana ignition interlock device state laws FAQs

An ignition interlock device is a breathalyzer that is installed in your vehicle often after a drunk driving offense. Ignition interlocks require a user to blow into them before allowing you to start the vehicle and are effective in preventing somebody from starting their vehicle while intoxicated. It is made up of a mouthpiece, a handheld unit and a cord that attaches to your vehicle’s ignition system. For more information see our what is an interlock page.
