If you have been convicted of a DUI in Georgia, one of your consequences may be that after your license is reinstated you have to have an ignition interlock device (IID) installed in your vehicle. The cost of installing and maintaining an IID can add up quickly. However, one important aspect of having an IID is getting them calibrated.
Here is what happens when you are required to have an IID installed on your vehicle:
- Depending on your situation, you are required to bring your car in for calibration testing in 30, 60, or 90-day intervals.
- The IID keeps a record of your driving activity and the electrical system of your automobile. This information is downloaded at the calibration testing appointment.
- If it appears that the IID has been tampered with, you may be deemed in violation of your program, and can incur further consequences.
- If you do not bring in your car for calibration testing, you may be locked out of your vehicle. Not going in for your calibration appointment does not look good to the court and could result in further consequences.
