If you’ve been ordered by the courts to install an ignition interlock, you have two choices. You can install the device and get back to living your life and enjoying your privilege to drive. OR, you can choose not to install the interlock because on top of all the other costs associated with an alcohol-related traffic offense (DUI/DWI/OWI/OVI) you don’t want the added cost of installing and maintaining an interlock. That first option is really the best choice and here’s why.

Ignition interlocks were developed because most people need to drive to make the most of life. They commute to work, run errands, and transport kids to various activities. An ignition interlock provides the opportunity to regain your driving privileges legally and safely. 

Over the years, our clients have told us that their LifeSafer^® Ignition Interlock actually saved them money. Think about it. At around $2.50-$3.50 per day, an ignition interlock costs less than one drink at a bar. Plus, you do not put yourself at risk of getting caught driving on a suspended license. As you’ve seen, that can cost you so much more than the interlock. Add to that the benefits of safe and sober driving – you’re safer, those with you are safer, and your community is safer. Installing the ignition interlock is the better choice by far.
