Ignition Interlock Device Laws
- Alaska DUI laws require all drivers who are convicted of driving under the influence, regardless of BAC or prior convictions, to install an ignition interlock device on any vehicle that they own or that is registered in their name. Drivers are responsible for paying all costs associated with the installation and maintenance of the ignition interlock device.
License Suspension
Under Alaska ignition interlock device laws, upon conviction for driving under the influence, drivers are subject to license suspension, during which they may only drive vehicles equipped with an ignition interlock device. The term of the suspension depends on the number of previous convictions for DUI.
For first offense DUI in Alaska, an offender faces a suspension of at least 90 days in addition to any fines or jail time imposed. A driver convicted of four or more DUIs faces a license suspension of at least five years.
