Smart Start’s ignition interlock system effectively separates drinking from driving. It combines advanced technology, accurate monitoring and responsive, flexible reporting. At the heart of Smart Start’s solution is the SSI-1000® – a state-of-the-art handheld breath-alcohol monitoring device electronically connected to the vehicle ignition. Alcohol-specific and similar in size to a cellphone, the SSI-1000 was developed using fuel-cell sensor technology for reliability and ease of operation. Smart Start pairs this proven device with proprietary Smartrac® and SmartLog® software. This makes it easy for drivers to use, and allows the interlock program and reporting to be customized to a particular jurisdiction.

The SSI-1000, developed exclusively by Smart Start, reflects state-of-the-art interlock technology. Multiple design features make the device difficult to defeat. The built-in microchip records all test results, engine starts and stops, disconnections and tampering for later review.
