New bill hopes to strengthen TN DUI laws - WSMV Channel 4




Here is a story from WSMV concerning the efforts of MADD to pass an ignition interlock law that would require all first offenders with a .08 BAC or above to install an ignition interlock. The bill is HB 353.
It will eliminate Restricted Licenses, replacing them with ignition interlock requirements for persons with a .08 BAC or above. It will permit ignition interlock licenses for all DUI offenders, not just 1st offenders.
If a person is convicted of driving under the influence of drugs or is convicted with a .07, there is no ignition interlock, but there is also no restricted license.
