Ignition Interlock Device (IID) – Stay Compliant & Get Back on the Road
If you’ve been convicted of a DUI or DWI, you may be required to install an Ignition Interlock Device (IID) in your vehicle to regain your driving privileges. At Drive Guard Insurance, we help you understand IID requirements and provide affordable insurance solutions to meet state regulations.
What is an Ignition Interlock Device (IID)?
How Does an IID Work?
Blow into the device before starting your car.
If alcohol is detected above the preset limit, the engine won’t start.
Some devices require random retests while driving to ensure continued sobriety.
Who Needs an IID?
You may be required to install an IID if you have:
A DUI or DWI conviction
Multiple alcohol-related driving offenses
A court order or DMV mandate for an IID
A restricted driver’s license requiring an IID
How Long Do You Need an Ignition Interlock Device?
The required IID installation period depends on your state and the severity of your offense. Typical time frames range from six months to several years. If you remove or tamper with the device, your suspension period may be extended.
Cost of an Ignition Interlock Device
The cost of an IID varies based on the provider and location. On average, drivers can expect:
Installation Fee: $70 – $150
Monthly Rental & Maintenance: $60 – $120
Removal Fee: $50 – $100
Some states offer financial assistance programs for low-income drivers who need an IID.

Getting an IID is a straightforward process:
Check Your State’s IID Requirements – We’ll help you understand the rules in your state.
