Ignition Interlock Devices Now Come With Cameras In WA

Whoa- I hadn't heard about this before; starting yesterday, law enforcement is getting even more serious about preventing driving under the influence. All new ignition interlock devices installed in vehicles of people convicted of DUIs will also feature a camera.
Ignition interlock devices require a clean breath sample before allowing a car to start.The point of the cameras is to keep a sober passenger or child from blowing into the device in order to get it started for the person who has been drinking. The Yakima Herald has more.
