Next in line: Wyoming DUI

05 03.09

That is correct my friends. The Wyoming DUI bill requiring ignition interlock devices for DUI offenders has OFFICIALLY passed.

The Wyoming Legislature has agreed on a bill that would require some convicted drunken drivers to install breathalyzers in their cars.

The Senate and House both voted Thursday to approve a compromise version of the bill hammered out by a joint conference committee.

Under the bill, repeat DUI offenders and those arrested for a first time with a blood-alcohol content of .15 or more would be required to install ignition interlock devices in their cars. If the device detects alcohol on the driver’s breath, the car won’t start.

The bill was headed to Gov. Dave Freudenthal’s desk for his approval. It was the only 1 of 3 DUI bills to survive the session.

Which state will be next?
