vehicle interlocking device
 
also known as a breathalyzer that you have to get installed in your car, in which u have to blow in everytime u want to start your car. this is due to too many DUIs or 24 hour prohibitions.

anyone here gotten this before or know anyone that has?
any details you got id appreciate thanks.

asahai69 11-16-2009 08:10 PM

lol just get an air compressor?

Eff-1 11-16-2009 08:40 PM

You are also stuck with paying for the installation fees, rental fees for a year, and a monthly monitoring fee from what I remember. Comes out to like $1200 per year, or something like that.

wtf I've never even heard of such thing. Its kinda flawed since you can just get a friend to blow it.

But having a friend that can blow it without failing, equals a sober friend that can probably drive.
Stupid if you decide to drive your drunk self instead of letting your sober friend drive if he has a licence.

We had a customer with this type of device installed. She needed to use it whenever she started up her car. It was actually a pretty neat device until we had to move her car out of the shop and she wasn't present. We had to call some Alberta head office thing to get a temp 1-time use code so we could drive it out.

Peturbo 11-16-2009 09:38 PM

^So the device has a way of knowing who blew into it? (her being the only one able to start it if sober)

Eff-1 11-16-2009 09:46 PM

No the device can't tell who blew into it. It just needs a sober breath sample.

The device makes you blow again at random times while driving. That is supposed to stop sober people from blowing into the machine to start the car, but then letting a drunk person drive away. Techinically the sober person could ride with a drunk person and blow for them if the machine asks. But who is stupid enough to do that? Letting a drunk person drive with a sober person in the passenger seat... lol.

Well, none of us at the shop drink but here's the other kicker...would I actually want to put my lips on that tube after Drunky McDrunkersteen was deep throating it?

I'd rather catch Hep A,B or C from a hooker thanks!! :p

yvrnycracer 11-16-2009 11:03 PM

knew a guy who had one installed... i guess if you are driving and you don't blow an alarm will go off as well... like a siren that is mounted in the engine bay...

raven69 11-18-2009 03:37 PM

please keep this thread on topic people.

so to those who have seen them installed, how was the instal? i heard they hack up your dashboard and drill holes and shit, therefore i shud have this shit installed in my beater and not my nice car?

Hondaracer 11-18-2009 04:42 PM

if your that much of an idiot to drive drunk that many times to need it installed i hope they drill holes in your dash..

i knew a guy who had one installed in his fucking parents mini-van, the guy ended up having a few beers tried to blow, was over and now doesn't have a licence for life i belive..

XtC-604 11-18-2009 05:49 PM

why would anyone get this installed in the first place?
