According to New York State Vehicle and Traffic law, an interlock device must be installed in you vehicle when you are eligible for driver’s license reinstatement after a second DWI within 5 years, or any Felony DWI charge. More on ignition interlock laws on my drunk driving additional penalties page. Also see my DWI page, and this page on Oneida County’s efforts to put together their interlock program.
