Caucus & COW

Overview

Increases the penalty for knowingly lending a vehicle to an individual required to use an ignition interlock device if a consequent collision results in death or serious injury.

History

A.R.S. § 28-1464 establishes restrictions and penalties related to ignition interlock devices for individuals with restricted driving privileges due to DUI-related offenses. It prohibits renting, leasing or lending a vehicle to such individuals unless the vehicle is equipped with an ignition interlock device, except in cases of substantial emergency. Restricted drivers must notify vehicle providers of their ignition interlock requirements and are prohibited from bypassing their ignition interlock devices. Violations of this statute constitute a class 1 misdemeanor, with certain violations leading to an extension of the ignition interlock device requirement for up to one year.

Provisions

1.   Makes it a class 6 felony to knowingly lend a motor vehicle to someone in violation of the ignition interlock statutes, if that person subsequently is involved in a collision that results in death or serious physical injury. (Sec. 1)

2.   Makes technical changes. (Sec. 1)
