Do you have an Ignition Interlock because of a DUI or DWI? Your Ignition Interlock is connected to your vehicle and works alongside it when it is installed. But it’s important to not leave your vehicle running with your Ignition Interlock unattended.

Don’t Leave Your Vehicle Running with an Ignition Interlock

There are times where you may take your initial Ignition Interlock test to start the vehicle. You then go back inside the house for a minute because you might have forgotten something. Or it’s colder weather and you want your vehicle to warm up before driving to work.

But your Ignition Interlock is then prompting for a rolling re-test and you’re not in the vehicle. A few minutes pass, and the test window for that rolling re-test has expired. A rolling re-test countdown can vary by state, but the average length is up to six minutes.

Your Ignition Interlock will register this as a skipped rolling re-test, which can be considered a violation of your DUI requirements. This means your revocation period can be reinstated or other consequences.

It’s very important to remember not to leave your vehicle unattended while it is on with an Ignition Interlock installed during your court or state-ordered program! You’ll save yourself a lot of headache and stress in the long run by staying alert with your Ignition Interlock. You should also make sure to check your device for rolling re-test prompts before exiting your vehicle. These missed tests could cause violations, and we’d hate for that to happen!
