An initial interlock system in the state of Maryland is a devices installed in a vehicle and requires the driver to provide a breath test before the vehicle is started and typically every 15 minutes the vehicle is running. The device is able detect alcohol on the breath and would prevent a vehicle for starting if it senses more than a minimal amount of alcohol on that person's breath.
The ignition interlock system remains on a vehicle typically for one year and records every breath test as well as any violations of that breath.
The ignition interlock is typically required in cases where the driver is found to have a blood-alcohol content of .15% or higher or when the individual refuses a blood or breath test after the DUI or DWI stop.
