The majority of states, including Illinois, require first-time DUI offenders to have a Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device (BAIID) installed on their vehicles.
Illinois also requires a camera unit on the BAIID to capture the image of the driver as he/she performs the breath test.
On average, approximately 11,000 individuals are driving with a BAIID device installed on their car or truck.
First-time DUI offenders who wish to obtain and are eligible for driving relief during the period of statutory summary suspension are required to have a BAIID installed on their vehicle.
