Interview Transcript

Scott Michael Dunn: Do first-time DUI offenders need to get a BAIID in Illinois? That’s an interlock type of device, right?

Joshua Boardman: Yes. That is often imposed as a condition of limited driving privileges or limited driving permit, and there’s vendors for that. They want to see proof of installation and then it’s got to be maintained throughout that suspension or revocation period.
