New Mexico was the first state to require all convicted drunk drivers to use this lifesaving device. Since the law was first implemented in 2005, drunk driving fatalities have dropped by 36 percent. Arizona soon followed suit, and that state’s fatalities have since dropped by more than 46 percent. These fatality reductions demonstrate the need for every state to require interlocks for all convicted drunk drivers.
