"South Carolina Takes Stronger Measures to Combat DUI with Ignition Interlock Bill"

Governor Henry McMaster of South Carolina signed the Ignition Interlock Bill into law, which imposes an ignition interlock requirement on all first-time DUI convictions and pre-convictions. The law aims to reduce the number of DUI incidents and save lives by temporarily preventing convicted drunk drivers from starting their vehicles if any measurable amount of alcohol is detected. The state had the eighth-most felony DUI deaths in recent years, and the new law is seen as a significant step towards improving highway safety.
