An ignition interlock device works just as one might think. By the way, that’s a fancy term for the blow-and-go.

The blow-and-go device is what we all commonly refer to it as. It’s the device that goes in your car.

Oftentimes, the newer ones, not just in West Virginia, but everywhere, they’re like a little handheld TV remote with a plastic tip on the end, a little wire that goes into your steering column. You blow into it before you start your car.

If you have alcohol in your system, your vehicle will not start. So when they say the ignition interlock device, that is what it is.

It’s the blow-and-go, and it’s a little device with a wire that goes into the steering column and a plastic tip on it, and you blow into it before you start your car. If done correctly, it’s really not a cumbersome thing or anything that people notice that aren’t in your car.
