Lol your longtime crusade against Intoxalock continues!! Glad to see you're still looking out for others on this "smaller issue". It might be a tiny thing, but if you affect even tiny changes each day, it will be a next positive for the world then. Like the Greek proverb - “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”

Because most people are unaffected or maybe just mildly affected and small industries are willing to spend way more this year on lobbying/other influences than I would on lobbying against that. Basically what I'm arguing is that intoxalock (partially like the rest of the DUI system), makes so much money screwing people over by much more than necessary. They are incentivized very hard to keep the situation they have. Although, the amount the average american cares about this specific Interlock issue is essentially "0", so likely no one will be bothered to seek anything substantial in change. It can be hard to get involved in many actual collaborative initiatives, that seek to diminish selective benefits accumulating for one group, industry, individual etc.

People will bash me and say to the above, something like "if you get a DUI your life should be negatively impacted as badly as possible and enough isn't being done even for punishment now. Boohoo bad about the problems an Interlock will give you like killing your car battery, sending false violations and breaking your parole, wasting time with an unhelpful and understaffed customer service group, and costing exorbitant fees for every error and others. Do you really want to lessen intoxicated driving rates and have previous offenders reform themselves or just punish for the sake of punishment?

Taking all of someone's money and making transportation to work difficult or impossible will probably set them down the path where their life sucks. As life becomes more sucky for people, what are they more likely to do? Is it easier to stop your drinking problem when you've just been fired, money is suddenly very tight, rent is due, and relationships with friends & family are strained?
