IGNITION INTERLOCK LICENSE
One of the collateral consequences of being arrested for a DUI involving alcohol with a BAC reading over 0.08 is the dreaded license suspension. There is no doubt that this negative consequence can have very severe consequences on the accused. However, if you do lose your license you may be eligible for an "Ignition Interlock License" (IIL). This allows you to drive even though your license is suspended. However, you must follow the DOL's instructions to obtain the license and importantly have installed an Ignition Interlock Device and SR 22 insurance prior to applying. What follows is how to obtain the "IIL."
How to apply for an IIL
1. Install an ignition interlock device in every vehicle you drive. The installer will send proof to the DOL that the devices have been installed.
2. Get proof of SR-22 insurance.
3. Complete the IIL Application. www.dol.wa.gov/forms/500023.pdf
4. Submit the completed application with a check or money order for the application fee ($100):
- In person at any driver licensing office, or
- By mail to: Driver Records, Department of Licensing, PO Box 9048, Olympia, WA 98507-9048
