Do I need to notify you that I had the interlock installed?
Your installer will electronically notify us within 24 hours of the installation.
What do I do if ordered to install an interlock on my vehicle and I don’t have a car?
ARS 28-1461 requires that your driving privilege remain suspended or revoked until we receive proof of a functioning interlock in each motor vehicle you operate (even though you may not be the registered owner). The law requires use of the interlock for at least one year from the date that your driving privilege is reinstated or from the date we receive the report of conviction, whichever occurs later.
What will happen if I'm caught driving a different vehicle without the interlock?
Upon conviction of driving without an interlock, your requirement to maintain an interlock will be extended for one additional year after your original restriction would have ended.
I have received an order to install an interlock device. What happens if I don't comply?
Failure to have the device installed and to provide verification to MVD within 30 days from the date of conviction, may result in immediate suspension of your Arizona driving privilege and possible extension of the original interlock requirement.
Does Arizona allow the use of Bioptic Telescopic Lens System to meet vision standards for obtaining a license?

How long do you have to be seizure-free before applying for medical clearance to resume driving?
You must be seizure-free for 90 days, but you must report the seizure to the Medical Review Program as soon as the medical condition allows. At the end of the 90 days, you will be mailed a Medical Examination Report to complete and submit to determine eligibility.
Are physicians required by law to report a driver with a medical condition that may affect the ability to operate a motor vehicle safely?
No, but if a physician reports a driver in good faith, the physician is immune from civil or criminal liability for making the report.
Whose responsibility is it to report a driver’s medical condition?
It is the driver’s responsibility. As soon as a driver’s medical condition allows, the driver must notify the Medical Review Program (in writing or by telephone) that he or she has, or may have, a medical condition not previously reported, which affects the ability to safely operate a motor vehicle.
How do I apply for a window tinting exemption?
You must submit a copy of the vehicle registration and a letter from your physician, stating the medical reason for the request. The information must include your name and license number. Please note this exemption does not include the front windshield of the vehicle.
How do I report an unsafe driver?
If you have direct knowledge of a person’s medical status that would affect his or her ability to safely operate a motor vehicle, you may complete a Driver Condition / Behavior Report. Information received by the Medical Review Program is subject to disclosure in accordance with state and/or federal law. Once we receive the form, our only contact will be with the driver. We will not notify you of any outcome.
