GRANTS OFFERED TO STATES THAT PASS INTERLOCK LAWS
As part of the 2012 federal highway authorization bill, known as MAP-21, MADD urged Congress to create a bold new incentive grant program to encourage states to pass all-offender ignition interlock legislation. The result was a new ignition interlock incentive grant program under Section 405 of the federal highway bill. This new program provides $20 million for states that pass legislation requiring ignition interlocks for all convicted drunk drivers. Money is distributed to states using a formula similar to other highway safety programs. Unfortunately, not all states have passed this legislation and are not receiving federal safety dollars that could help improve traffic safety.
