It was so painful for our entire community. Its been a relatively short amount of time in getting this law passed so now the focus turns to implementation of the law and getting it to work. After noahs law takes effect in october, anyone convicted of drunk driving in maryland must have an ignition interlock device in their vehicle, even firsttime offenders.

We asked about the accuracy of the interlock devices. There are examples where people use mouthwash and perhaps get a false reading. They told us anyone who has the device has specific instructions on how to handle those false readings, so they do what they can to try to prevent those. Back to you. Thank you, kristin.
