As of August 15, 2010 New York Vehicle Traffic Law §1198, more commonly referred to as Leandra's Law took effect. This provision sets forth that anyone sentenced for Driving While Intoxicated after August 15, 2010 is required to have an ignition interlock system installed in their vehicle as a condition of their sentencing or probation even a first time offender. A person facing a misdemeanor DWI is required to have the interlock system in any and all vehicles they have access to, from six months to three years. In a Felony DWI cases the device will be ordered to remain in the vehicle for five years. The installation of the interlock system costs 100 dollars and maintenance of such a device is $70.00 monthly.
