Can a voluntary car interlock breathalyzer be reset so that you don't have to blow while driving?

Question

Can a voluntary (not court ordered) car interlock breathalyzer be reset so that you don't have to blow while driving, only when starting the car? And where can I get one installed in Arizona? There are lots of places for the court ordered testers that cannot be adjusted, but I need one that can be adjusted. This is for a recovering alcoholic that wants to avoid any mishaps in case of a setback and impaired judgement. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

Re-tests are not required while actually driving.  Periodic re-tests are called for to ensure one isn't drinking while driving, but you have 6 minutes to pull over and take the test in safety before resuming driving.   If you don't pull over, the engine does not shut off while you are driving, however, the system will then have to be reset within 5 days, or the car will not start no matter how many times you blow into the device.  Then you have to have it towed in.

It is not an option.  There are no adjustments that can be made.

Answer 2

They cannot be reset but they can only be disconnected......

Answer 3

I never heard of one that needs to be blown while driving(insert own joke here) I would think it would be a driving hazard(distraction)
