Virginia DMV certifies IID service providers throughout the state.
Installation of a breathalyzer interlock is required for Virginia drivers convicted of two DUIs within five years. In addition, a judge may require an IID be installed for any person convicted of a DUI. The costs of installation and monitoring are payed by the offender, though there is an indigent offender program for those who cannot afford the costs.
In Virginia, an Alcohol Safety Action Program (ASAP) case manager will arrange an appointment for the installation of the breathalyzer interlock, or ignition interlock device (IID), at a nearby service center. The offender will have 30 days to have the IID installed. After installation, the offender will send proof of installation to the case manager, and the ignition interlock installer will send a report to the case manager also confirming installation.
IID service providers and the breathalyzer device itself must be certified by the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles. As mentioned previously the ASAP case manager will arrange an appointment with a certified service provider.
