WASHINGTON — An effort to get more states to require convicted drunken drivers to test their breath for alcohol before they can start their cars is gaining support in Congress.
A House transportation bill unveiled Tuesday would offer additional highway funds to states that require ignition interlock devices for DUI offenders. A similar measure is expected to come before the Senate. The ignition interlock prevents a driver from starting the engine if his or her blood-alcohol content exceeds a preset limit.
