First-time and repeat DUI offenders are required by Pennsylvania law to only operate a motor vehicle with an ignition interlock system—a device that the operator must blow into before starting the vehicle. If alcohol is detected on the individual’s breath, the vehicle won’t start. For more information on how the ignition interlock system works, check out the official PennDOT fact sheet.
