Amendment Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Amend Senate File 2186 as follows:
  1  2    #1.  Page 6, by inserting after line 20 the
  1  3 following:
  1  4    "Sec.    .  Section 321J.4, subsection 7, Code
  1  5 Supplement 1995, is amended to read as follows:
  1  6    7.  On a conviction for or as a condition of a
  1  7 deferred judgment for a violation of section 321J.2,
  1  8 the court may order the defendant to install ignition
  1  9 interlock devices of a type approved by the
  1 10 commissioner of public safety on all motor vehicles
  1 11 owned or operated by the defendant which, without
  1 12 tampering or the intervention of another person, would
  1 13 prevent the defendant from operating the motor vehicle
  1 14 with an alcohol concentration greater than a level set
  1 15 by rule of the commissioner of public safety.  The
  1 16 commissioner of public safety shall adopt rules to
  1 17 approve certain ignition interlock devices and the
  1 18 means of installation of the devices, and shall
  1 19 establish the level of alcohol concentration beyond
  1 20 which an ignition interlock device will not allow
  1 21 operation of the motor vehicle in which it is
  1 22 installed.  The order shall remain in effect for a
  1 23 period of time as determined by the court which shall
  1 24 not exceed the maximum term of imprisonment which the
  1 25 court could have imposed according to the nature of
  1 26 the violation.  While the order is in effect, the
  1 27 defendant shall not operate a motor vehicle which does
  1 28 not have an approved ignition interlock device
  1 29 installed.  If the defendant's motor vehicle license
  1 30 or nonresident operating privilege has been revoked,
  1 31 the department shall not issue a temporary permit or a
  1 32 motor vehicle license to the person without
  1 33 certification that approved ignition interlock devices
  1 34 have been installed in all motor vehicles owned or
  1 35 operated by the defendant while the order is in
  1 36 effect.  A defendant who fails within a reasonable
  1 37 time to comply with an order to install an approved
  1 38 ignition interlock device may be declared in contempt
  1 39 of court and punished accordingly.  The department
  1 40 shall not reinstate a person's motor vehicle license
  1 41 without certification of removal of the ignition
  1 42 interlock device from the motor vehicle.  The
  1 43 certification of removal shall be issued by the
  1 44 manufacturer or installer and shall indicate that the
  1 45 device has been returned intact to the manufacturer or
  1 46 installer and that the device has not been tampered
  1 47 with.  A person who tampers with or circumvents an
  1 48 ignition interlock device installed under a court
  1 49 order while an order is in effect commits a serious
  1 50 misdemeanor."
