under
chapter
321J,
as
amended
in
this

Act,
for

EXPLANATION
14
The
inclusion
of
this
explanation
does
not
constitute
agreement
with
15
the
explanation’s
substance
by
the
members
of
the
general
assembly.
16
Under
current
law,
a
person
whose
driver’s
license
is
17
revoked
for
operating
while
intoxicated
(OWI)
is
required
to
18
install
an
ignition
interlock
device
(IID)
prior
to
being
19
issued
a
temporary
restricted
license
(TRL)
by
the
department
20
of
transportation
(DOT).
The
IID
must
be
installed
on
every
21
vehicle
owned
or
operated
by
the
person,
or
every
vehicle
22
operated
by
the
person
if
the
person
has
had
no
previous
23
conviction
or
revocation
under
Code
chapter
321J.
24
Current
law
also
requires
a
person
with
a
second
or
25
subsequent
driver’s
license
revocation
for
OWI
to
install
an
26
IID
for
a
minimum
of
one
year
after
reinstatement
of
a
driver’s
27
license
other
than
a
TRL.
The
one-year
period
may
be
offset
by
28
any
time
a
person
had
an
IID
installed
on
the
person's
vehicle
29
while
operating
with
a
TRL.
30
This
bill
expands
that
provision.
After
reinstatement
of
a
31
driver’s
license
other
than
a
TRL,
a
person
with
no
previous
32
revocation
under
Code
chapter
321J
must
maintain
an
IID
for
180
33
days
if
the
violation
did
not
involve
personal
injury
or
death.
34
If
it
did,

person

no
previous
revocation

Code

H.F.
_____
chapter
321J
is
subject
to
the
one-year
IID
requirement
under
1
current
law.
The
bill
allows
an
exemption
for
persons
who
do
2
not
own
or
have
access
to
a
motor
vehicle.
3
These
IID
periods
may
be
extended
based
on
compliance-based
4
removal
(CBR)
provisions.
If
an
IID
detects
a
violation
by
a
5
person
during
the
90-day
period
immediately
preceding
the
date
6
on
which
the
period
of
time
a
person
is
required
to
maintain
7
an
IID
for
driver’s
license
reinstatement
ends,
the
period
of
8
time
is
extended
until
the
person
completes
90
consecutive
days
9
without
a
violation,
as
determined
by
the
DOT
based
on
an
IID
10
provider’s
compliance
report
submitted
in
accordance
with
the
11
bill.
The
IID
provider
must
generate
and
submit
the
report
to
12
the
DOT
no
earlier
than
the
date
on
which
the
period
of
time
13
a
person
is
required
to
maintain
an
IID
for
driver’s
license
14
reinstatement
ends,
and
no
later
than
seven
business
days
15
following
that
date.
The
IID
provider
is
required
to
generate
16
and
submit
a
subsequent
report
to
the
DOT
in
this
manner
based
17
on
any
subsequent
extensions,
if
any.
18
The
bill
does
not
limit
the
number
of
times
an
IID
19
requirement
for
driver’s
license
reinstatement
for
a
person
may
20
be
extended.
21
Under
the
bill,
a
violation
includes
failing
to
provide
a
22
detectable
breath
sample
when
prompted
by
the
IID,
providing
23
a
breath
sample
with
a
level
of
alcohol
concentration
beyond
24
which
an
IID
will
not
allow
operation
of
the
motor
vehicle,
and
25
removing
without
authorization,
bypassing,
circumventing,
or
26
tampering
with
the
IID,
including
any
such
attempt,
detected
27
by
the
device.
However,
it
is
not
a
violation
under
CBR
if
a
28
person
provides
a
detectable
breath
sample
and
successfully
29
passes
a
test
immediately
following
the
first
failed
test
or
in
30
response
to
a
bypass
or
circumvention
attempt.
31
The
bill
strikes
a
provision
allowing
a
person
whose
32
driver’s
license
has
been
revoked
under
Code
section
321J.21
to
33
apply
to
the
DOT
for
a
TRL
without
the
requirement
of
an
IID
if
34
at
least
12

have

section

1
Under
the
bill,
a
person
who
removes
an
IID
without
2
authorization
commits
a
serious
misdemeanor.
A
serious
3
misdemeanor
is
punishable
by
confinement
for
no
more
than
one

year
and
a
fine
of
at
least
$430
but
not
more
than
$2,560.

The
bill
creates
a
new
criminal
offense
for
a
person
who
6
has
a
TRL
and
who
operates
a
motor
vehicle
without
an
IID
7
installed.
The
penalties
range
from
a
serious
misdemeanor
8
(first
offense)
to
an
aggravated
misdemeanor
with
a
48-hour
9
minimum
term
of
imprisonment
in
a
county
jail
(third

An
aggravated

is
punishable
11
by
confinement
for
no
more
than
two

and
a
fine
of
at
