Do you know when you’ll need a Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device, or BAIID in Michigan? The state requires a BAIID for first-time DUI cases with a .17 BAC or above, and repeat DUI cases.

Below is more information on when exactly you’ll need a BAIID in Michigan.

First DUI in Michigan

In Michigan, you will serve a one-year driver’s license suspension. However, if you’re eligible, the Michigan Secretary of State can issue a restricted driver’s license 45 days after your suspension starts. A restricted license will permit you to operate a vehicle that is equipped with a BAIID to drive to the following locations:

  • To and from work during work hours
  • To and from alcohol or drug education or treatment programs
  • To and from regular treatment for serious medical conditions
  • To and from probation, community service and/or school

Proof of your BAIID installation is required to receive this restricted driver’s license, which you can receive from your provider, such as Smart Start.

Second or Subsequent DUIs

If you have two more DUI convictions within 10 years, or two or more convictions of drunk or drugged driving in the last seven years, the law considers you a habitual offender. This means the Secretary of State is required to revoke your driver’s license and deny your application for another license. After the license revocation period, you may be eligible for a driver’s license application appeal hearing.

If this restricted driver’s license is ordered, the hearing officer will then require you to install the BAIID on any vehicle you operate.

After Installation of the BAIID

Once your BAIID is installed, Smart Start Michigan will provide you with a BAIID installation form that you can either provide to the ordering sobriety court or take to your local Secretary of State office.
