HI HB2643

Requires the Department of Transportation to select multiple certified vendors instead of a single vendor to install and maintain ignition interlock devices under Hawaii Revised Statutes chapter 291E.

Mandates that vendor selection comply with chapter 103D (public procurement law) and establishes minimum standards for all vendors including device certification, statewide installation availability, driver training, maintenance scheduling, and periodic reporting on device usage.

Authorizes vendors to provide partial financial relief for installation and calibration charges to low-income offenders who receive food stamps, Older Americans Act services, or Developmentally Disabled Assistance and Bill of Rights Act services.

Applies the same multiple-vendor requirement to continuous alcohol monitoring devices ordered by courts under section 291E-6.5.

Takes effect upon approval and aims to promote consumer choice, competition, and geographic availability of ignition interlock services throughout the state.
