Lawsuit claims ignition interlocks not safe

`The suit was filed by a two-time drunken driving convict who passed out and crashed his car while blowing into an ignition interlock, a small machine that measures alcohol on the breath and won’t allow a car to start if the driver has been drinking. [..]

Jason Reali, 29, of Telford, claims in his suit that he had to blow into the machine so hard to make it work that it often left him dizzy.

A heavy smoker, Reali said he blew so hard during one test that he fell unconscious and crashed into a tree, severely injuring his hand. He was sober at the time.’
