Ithaca DWI Lawyer: It's Been Years Since My DWI Why Do I Still Need an Ignition Interlock?

People that have been sentenced to a New York DWI under any VTL 1192 sub section except (DWAI drugs) will have a mandatory condition in place. This mandatory condition is called the A2 license restriction by the NYS DMV. It means you can only drive a vehicle with an installed ignition interlock device or IID. This condition is usually ordered for 12 months and you have the option to petition the court for removal after 6 months if you have no issues (failures) with the IID.

What if you don't have a car? What if your DWI happened when you were only visiting New York State? What if your NYS DWI was in a borrowed car? What if you don't plan to drive for a year or two? What then?
