When Will I Need an Ignition Interlock in Indiana?

You may need to install an Ignition Interlock in Indiana if you were convicted of an OWI and want to restore your driving privileges. Indiana does not require an Ignition Interlock for all OWI cases, but for first offenses, a judge can order an Ignition Interlock. Repeat cases must use an Ignition Interlock.

If you have an Ignition Interlock requirement, then you need to install the device on any vehicle you operate. In addition, Indiana law requires you to have a camera in your vehicle to take a photo of you every time you take a test with your Ignition Interlock.

Below is general information that shows how long your license suspension period will be according to the number of OWIs you have received within five years.
