What If I Have a Medical Condition, But Need an Ignition Interlock in Colorado?

Do you need an Ignition Interlock in Colorado, but you’re worried about completing the breath tests due to a medical condition? Lung-related diseases such as asthma can affect a person’s ability to complete a breath test. If you are eligible, Smart Start can assist you and lower the breath volume on your Ignition Interlock.

Here’s the steps to take to be considered to lower your Ignition Interlock’s breath volume in Colorado due to a medical condition and still meet your DUI requirements.

Steps to Lower Your Ignition Interlock’s Breath Volume in Colorado

First, ask your doctor for a notarized statement. This statement should go into detail about your medical condition, and why you cannot complete a breath test due to this condition. Then, once you have this statement, reach out to the Colorado DMV and send the paperwork to them so they can review. Your Ignition Interlock vendor cannot reduce your device’s breath volume until the Colorado DMV approves this change!

Finally, when the DMV sends the approval to your vendor, you may then schedule an appointment with your Ignition Interlock provider so they can lower the breath volume for you. If your vendor is Smart Start, we will call you to let you know about your eligiblity. You can then visit our service center to adjust your Ignition Interlock.
