This bill proposes updates to section 28-1464 of the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding ignition interlock devices. It clarifies that individuals are prohibited from renting, leasing, or lending a motor vehicle to another person if they are aware that the other person has a limited driving privilege due to specific offenses, unless the vehicle is equipped with a functioning certified ignition interlock device. Additionally, it modifies the language to replace "permit" with "allow" in the context of individuals with limited driving privileges and their use of ignition interlock devices.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new provision that escalates the penalty for individuals who knowingly lend a vehicle to someone with a limited driving privilege if that person is involved in a collision resulting in death or serious injury. In such cases, the lender would be guilty of a class 6 felony, while other violations of the section remain classified as a class 1 misdemeanor. The bill also maintains the requirement for individuals to provide proof of installation of the ignition interlock device to the department within seventy-two hours to avoid suspension of their restricted driver license or privilege.
