The bill H.F. No. 2130 aims to enhance public safety by extending the duration of driver's license revocations for offenses related to driving while impaired (DWI) and modifying the requirements for participation in the ignition interlock program. It mandates that individuals must complete a licensed substance use disorder treatment program before regaining full driving privileges. The bill introduces criminal penalties for operating vehicles without an ignition interlock device and makes criminal vehicular homicide offenders eligible for the program. Key amendments include the deletion of specific revocation periods based on prior impaired driving incidents and the insertion of new provisions regarding penalties for tampering with ignition interlock devices. Additionally, it expands the validity period of temporary driver's licenses issued after a DWI from seven to fourteen days and allows peace officers to invalidate impounded plates with a permanent sticker.

The bill also outlines the process for reinstating driving privileges, emphasizing the need for individuals with multiple impaired driving incidents to participate in the ignition interlock program for specified periods, which vary based on the severity of the offense. It includes provisions for extending the ignition interlock program if a participant registers a positive breath alcohol concentration or commits a new offense. Furthermore, the bill modifies the petition process for court hearings on license reinstatement and updates definitions related to ignition interlock devices. It appropriates funds for staffing and expenses related to the program and repeals several existing statutes that are no longer applicable. The effective date for these changes is set for August 1, 2025, applying to offenses committed on or after that date.
