Are you worried about completing your Ignition Interlock tests due to a medical condition? In Tennessee, Smart Start can help lower the breath volume of your device if something medically related is preventing you from completing a test. For instance, if you have a lung-related condition such as asthma, it may be more difficult when taking the necessary breath tests.

We are always happy to help you during your program, but the right steps need to be taken first to lower the breath volume of your Ignition Interlock due to a medical condition.

The Process to Lower the Breath Volume of Your Ignition Interlock in Tennessee

First, you’ll want to schedule an appointment with your doctor and ask them to provide a letter to your court of conviction. This letter needs to be on your doctor’s letterhead and signed. The contents of the letter should go into detail on what your medical condition is and why it deters you from completing your Ignition Interlock breath tests, such as, ‘having a diminished lung capacity because of a pulmonary disease, or COPD.’

Next, you must have what is called a BVR form signed by your judge, probation officer, or the Tennessee Highway Patrol. You can get this form from your court.

Then, you can fax both your doctor’s letter and the signed BVR (breath volume reduction) form to 615-452-4550, which goes to Smart Start Tennessee’s office.

Now that we have the correct paperwork, we will call you and set up an appointment to adjust the breath volume of your Ignition Interlock. Then you’re done!
