Austin Criminal Defense Attorney Charlie Roadman demonstrates how the Texas ignition interlock device, specifically the Smart Start Ignition Interlock Device, functions. As a criminal defense attorney, Roadman provides a thorough walkthrough of using the device in his personal vehicle. The device, which is a breathalyzer connected to a car's ignition system, requires the driver to provide a breath sample that meets Texas's legal limits to start the car. It includes features for tracking driving hours and alcohol consumption, allowing the car to start only if the driver's Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) is below 0.02%. The device is designed to prevent drunk driving by locking the vehicle if it detects alcohol, requiring a zero BAC sample to restart.
