This bill proposes updates to section 28-1464 of the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding ignition interlock devices. It introduces a new provision that makes it a class 6 felony for a person to knowingly lend a motor vehicle to someone whose driving privileges are limited or restricted, if that vehicle is involved in a collision resulting in death or serious physical injury. Additionally, the bill modifies the language concerning the operation of ignition interlock devices, changing "permit" to "allow" in the context of a person whose driving privilege is limited, thereby clarifying the restrictions on their use.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies penalties for violations of the section. It specifies that a person who knowingly lends a vehicle in violation of the new subsection A and is involved in a serious incident faces a class 6 felony, while other violations remain classified as a class 1 misdemeanor. The bill also maintains the existing requirement for individuals to provide proof of installation of ignition interlock devices to the department within seventy-two hours, with the consequence of license suspension for non-compliance remaining unchanged.
