All across the United States and especially in Colorado, more and more DUI courts have been recommending the use of an interlock device in the cars of people who have recently been convicted of a DUI. These devices attach to the steering wheel of a car, and are about as large as an adult’s palm. They measure the alcohol in a individual’s system, and if the use is over the legal limit, the car will not start. The interlock device will re-test the driver a few times during the drive to ensure that they did not begin drinking after the initial test or have someone else blow into the device.
