AI Summary

  • Expands the definition of "restricted driving privilege" to include a 90-day interlock restricted privilege allowing driving for work, school, medical treatment, court obligations, religious services, childcare, and basic needs

  • Modifies ignition interlock device requirements so that violations within the last three months of the required six-month installation period extend the requirement until three consecutive violation-free months are completed, rather than adding a flat six-month extension

  • Adds "continuous alcohol monitoring" as a defined term (automatic testing of breath, blood, or transdermal alcohol at least hourly with regular data transmission) and authorizes courts to order it as a probation condition for second or subsequent DWI/boating while intoxicated offenses

  • Removes several waiting periods for limited driving privileges, including the 30-day waiting period for first-time DWI offenders and the 45-day waiting period for DWI court participants

  • Makes felony convictions for leaving the scene of an accident under section 577.060 no longer disqualify an applicant from receiving a limited driving privilege, and makes failure to maintain required ignition interlock proof or financial responsibility with the Department of Revenue a class A misdemeanor
