Did you know on average, 12,000 Illinois residents are driving with an interlock device installed on their car? Illinois law requires those with a DUI to install an interlock device in order to receive a driving permit. DUI laws in Illinois can be overwhelming, but it is important to follow the rules.
Illinois has two kinds of permits, a Monitoring Device Driving Permit (MDDP) and a Restricted Driving Permit (RDP). An MPPD is for a first-time DUI conviction, and an RPD is for a person with two or three DUI convictions. An MDDP allows a person to drive anywhere as long as they are driving a vehicle installed with an interlock. An RDP allows a person to drive on a restricted basis. An RDP requires the interlock to be installed for a period of five continuous years or more.
The Illinois Secretary of State’s office downloads interlock information every 60 days. If a download shows an interlock violation, a person’s suspension may be extended for an additional three months for each violation, and/or the driving permit may be canceled. Multiple extensions may result in the car being impounded for a period of at least 30 days or being seized/forfeited.
We have state specialists standing by to help you navigate Illinois Secretary of State’s office forms and help you get your driving privileges back. The difference is clear with Clear2DriveTM.
