An alternative to jail, bail and lengthy license suspensions.

Smart Start interlock ignition device (“go-n-blows”) monitoring is a preferable, cost-effective alternative to jail time, bail or driver’s license suspensions.  There are several different scenarios where someone in Waashington will need an IID. (1) If you are convicted of a DUI the court is required to order you to have an IID installed in your vehicle. (2) If you lose your license due to an alcohol-related offense, either by court order or the result of DOL suspension, the only way you can get a provisional license is to install an IID. (3) Many courts will order some type of monitoring as a condition of pre-trial release, especially if the case involves a high BAC, accident, or other aggravating factors. 

Having an IID installed prior to arraignment can increase your chances of avoiding custody, bail or alcohol-monitoring ankle bracelets. However, every court is different.  You should contact an attorney that has experience in the court you have been charged in.

In all of these scenarios is is important to have quick, reliable and professional services.  in addition, cheaper monthly fees isn’t necessarily less expensive.  Many companies hide cost (removal fees, reset fees, etc.).  When you need your license getting things done right the first time and filing the right paperwork with DOL is a must.
