The alcohol interlock scheme I

These are short articles about legal issues that may interest you. They are not legal advice. You should always get individual legal advice for your situation.

New laws came into force in Western Australia on 24 October 2016 about a scheme called “the alcohol interlock scheme”, or “AIS”. This is the first of 2 articles about the alcohol interlock scheme.

The AIS is a scheme where an alcohol testing and locking device is fixed to the ignition of vehicles for people who have committed certain drink driving offences, who, as well as being disqualified from driving for a period, have had their licences cancelled. When they re-apply for their licences, after the period of disqualification is ended, they must agree to take part in the scheme and have an interlock applied to their vehicle in order to be given their licence back.

This first article will discuss what an alcohol interlock is and what it does, what the alcohol interlock scheme is, what it costs, exemptions and what licences it applies to.

The scheme will NOT apply on the IOTs at this stage. But it is important to know about it, in case you or anyone in your family go to live in Western Australia, or it does start applying in the IOTs.

What is an alcohol interlock?

This is a device that measures the blood concentration of alcohol in someone’s blood. It is fitted to a car, truck or motor bike. Unless the driver blows a blood alcohol level of less than 0.02, the vehicle will not start. The device will also randomly require blood alcohol level tests during driving.

The device also records the readings and data is downloaded that is used to report on and monitor the drinking behaviour of the driver.

What is the alcohol interlock scheme (AIS)?

“Alcohol offenders” (people who commit certain offences, or repeat certain offences) have their licences cancelled, as well as being given a period of disqualification from driving. You are an “alcohol offender” if you commit certain offences, or repeat certain offences. The next article will discuss in detail how you can become an “alcohol offender” because the definition includes a number of different types of offences, or repeating certain offences.

The AIS is a scheme whereby alcohol offenders agree to have a condition, called an “I” condition, placed on their motor driver’s licence, in order to be allowed to be given a licence back after their period of disqualification ends. The person is then called an “interlock restricted driver.”

The “I” condition then requires the alcohol offender to have an alcohol interlock device fitted to their vehicle for a certain period of time, and comply with other conditions. The minimum period of having the device fitted is 180 days. The other conditions include the provision by the interlock device of performance data and getting the interlock device serviced, among other things.

It is a criminal offence to tamper with or try to circumvent the interlock device.

The cost of installing, renting, servicing and removing the interlock device is borne by the offender and is estimated at about $1,600 for 6 months. There will be a concession on the rental and servicing costs for certain low income benefit recipients. If you hold certain valid Department of Human Services concession or pensioner cards accredited interlock providers will offer the above concessions.

Exemptions from the scheme may apply if you live more than 150 kms from an accredited provider of an interlock scheme, or you have a medical condition which does not allow you to provide the required amount of breath to be analysed by the alcohol interlock.

What licences can an “I” condition apply to?

The AIS scheme (and therefore an alcohol interlocker device) can apply to extraordinary licences and provisional licences, as well as unrestricted licences. It does not apply to learners’ permits.

The next (second) article will discuss who becomes an “alcohol offender” and will have to agree to take part in the scheme to get their licence back. It will also discuss what happens if you have not agreed to take part in the scheme and drive, or drive contrary to the “I” condition on your licence.

Skim alkohol interlock I

Majalah-majalah pendek ini tentang perkara-perkara perundangan yang mungkin kamu berminat. Mereka bukan nasihat perundangan. Kamu ha-

rusnya mendapatkan nasihat perundangan tersendiri untuk keadaan kamu.

Undang-undang baru-baru ini ditegaskan di Australia Barat pada 24 October 2016 tentang skim yang dinamakan “the alcohol interlock scheme”, atau

“AIS”. Ini adalah majalah pertama diantara 2 tentang skim interlock alkohol.

AIS adalah skim dimana pemeriksaan alkohol dan alat pengunci di masukkan kedalam kereta untuk orang-orang yang telah buat kesalahan dalam

pelanggaran meminum sambil memandu, sesiapa, yang mana di disqualify untuk sekian lama, yang telah dibatalkan lesen mereka. Bila mereka

memohon lesen mereka kembali, selepas masa di disqualify berakhir, mereka mesti bersetuju untuk mengambil bahgian dalam skim ini dan me-

masang interlock di kereta mereka untuk mendapatkan lesen mereka kembali.

Majalah pertama ini akan bincangkan apa alkohol interlock itu dan apa yang dilakukan, apa skim alkohol interlock itu, berapa harganya, pembebasan

dan apa yang berlaku dari lesen itu.

Skim ini TIDAK digunakan di IOT disaat ini. Tetapi penting untuk mengetahuinya, jika seandainya kamu atau seorang dari keluarga kamu pergi ting-

gal di Australia Barat, atau mula dipergunakan di IOTs.

Apa itu alkohol interlock?

Alat ini mengukuri konsentrasi alkohol dalam dara. Alat ini dipasang dalam kereta, truck atau motorsekel. Kalau driver meniup batas alkohol dalam

dara kurang daripada 0.02, kereta itu tidak boleh start. Alat ini juga memerlukan pemeriksaan batas alkohol dalam dara dimasa sedang driving.

Alat ini jugak rekod reading ini dan data boleh dimuat-turun yang boleh digunakan untak laporan dan pemeriksaan kelakuan minuman driver ini.

Apa itu skim alkohol interlock (AIS)?

“Pelanggar alkohol” (orang yang lakukan pelanggaran tertentu, atau ulangi pelanggaran tertentu) yang lesen-lesen mereka dibatalkan, dan juga diberi

masa disqualifikasi dari driving. Kamu adalah “pelanggar alkohol” kerana kalau kamu lakukan pelanggaran tertentu, atau ulangi pelanggaran tertentu.

Majalah seterusnya akan bincangkan secara terperinci tentang cara kamu menjadi “pelanggar alkohol” kerana keterangannya termasuk berbagai

jenis pelanggaran, atau pelanggaran tertentu yang diulangi.

AIS adalah skim yang mana pelanggar alkohol bersetuju untuk mengadakan syarat, dipanggil sebagai syarat “I”, ditempatkan di lesen driver mereka

untuk mengizinkan mereka diberikan kembali lesen mereka setelah selesainya masa disqualifikasi. Seorang itu lalu dipanggil “interlock restricted

driver.”

Syarat “I” ini lalu memerlukan pelanggar alkohol itu untuk memasang alkohol interlock kedalam kereta mereka untuk masa yang tertentu, dan mengi-

kuti syarat-syarat lain. Masa paling singkat untuk memasukkan alat ini ialah 180 hari. Syarat-syarat lain temasuk ketentuan oleh alat interlock dalam

pengumpulan data dan keperluan serbis alat interlock ini, diantara perkara-perkara lain.

Mengusik atau coba menyingkirkan alat interlock ini adalah pelanggaran kriminal.

Ongkos untuk memasang, serbis dan menyabut alat interlock ini dipertanggungjawabkan oleh pelanggar dan ia kira-kira $1,600 untuk 6 bulan. Ada

kekurangan dalam ongkos sewaan dan serbis untuk orang yang berkurangan pendapatan. Kalau kamu memiliki concession Department of Human

Services tertentu atau kad pension, pihak yang memberi interlock akan memberikan pengurangan tersebut.

Pembebasan dari skim ini boleh diberikan kalau kamu tinggal lebih dari 150 kms dari pemberi skim interlock yang disahkan, atau kamu ada keadaan

kesihatan yang tidak membolehkan kamu untuk memberi jumlah penafasan yang diperlukan untuk di analisa oleh alkohol interlock.

Lesen-lesen apa yang syarat-syarat “I” boleh digunakan?

Skim AIS (dan justeru itu alat alkohol interlock) boleh melibatkan lesen-lesen ‘extraordinary’ dan lesen ‘provisional’, dan juga lesen-lesen

‘unrestricted’. Ia tidak temasuk learners’ permits.

Majalah seterusnya (kedua) akan bincangkan siapa yang menjadi “pelanggar alkohol” dan akan mesti bersetuju untuk mengambil bahgian dalam

skim untuk mendapatkan lesen mereka kembali. Ia juga akan bincangkan apa terjadi jika kamu tidak bersetuju untuk mengambil bahgian dalam skim

dan membawak kereta olehkerana membantah terhadap syarat-syarat “I” di lesen kamu.

“Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time, and always start with the person

Quote of the Day

"Stay positive always, even if you run out of reasons to be optimistic."

Thought for the Day

“I hate to have to tell you this”, said the Doctor in a sad compassionate voice, “but you have been unfortunately been diagnosed with a highly contagious disease, we will have to quarantine you and you’ll only be fed cheese and bologna.” “That’s terrible!” Said the distraught young man, quickly sitting down before he could faint. “I don’t know if I could handle being in quarantine…and the cheese and bologna diet… What’s with the cheese and bologna diet anyway? I’ve never of such a diet before?!” “It’s not exactly a diet”, responded the Doctor matter of factly, “it’s just the only food that will

fit under the door!”

Did you here about the guy who lost his whole left side? He’s alright now!

There is really no need to purchase ‘wonder’ pre-packaged cleaning products. Try making your own with products you can buy in bulk, and usually in cardboard. You've probably got all the ingredients in your cupboard.

All purpose cleaner: Fill an old spray bottle with vinegar and water. 1 part vinegar to 3 parts

water.

All purpose disinfectant: Fill an old spray bottle with 3 cups of hot water, 3 teaspoons of borax and 10 drops of eucalyptus,

lemon or lavender oil.

Clean a burnt fry pan: Fill pan with a layer of water, add 1 cup of vinegar, bring to boil. Remove from heat and add 2 tablespoons of baking soda (note: it will fizz). Empty the pan

and scourer.

Clean microwaves: Combine 1/4 cup of vinegar and 1 cup water in a microwavable container. Boil mixture for 3 mins. Let it stand in microwave for 10 mins. Wipe inside of

microwave with a damp cloth.

Clean mirrors: Pour a little vinegar onto a scrunched up sheet of newspaper and wipe mirror. Dry with a clean sheet of

newspaper.

Clean toilets: Sprinkle bicarb / baking soda into the bowl.

Rinse with vinegar and scrub.

Cleaning rags: Instead of buying cleaning rags wrapped in plastic recycle old towels, flannels and sheets that are well passed their used-by date.

Cut them us, use, the wash!

Descale your kettle: Half fill the kettle with water, drop a couple of slices of lemon and boil.

Repeat once. Dry with a cloth.

Fabric softener: Add one cup of white vinegar during the rinse

cycle.

Make your drinking glasses shine: Soak in a solution of vinegar and water. Dry with a

cloth.

Remove rust (from tins): Rub with a peeled potato dipped in

bicarb / baking soda or salt.

Good oral hygiene and regular visits to the dentist will help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. Here are some tips to help you look after your teeth.

Brush at least twice a day. The best time to brush teeth is after meals. Choose a toothbrush with a small head for better access to back teeth. Soft bristles are kinder on your gums.

Use fluoridated toothpaste. Fluoride helps to harden tooth enamel and reduces your risk of decay.

Brush thoroughly. Tooth brushing should take between two and three minutes.

Floss your teeth daily. Use a slow and gentle sawing motion.

Limit acidic drinks like soft drinks, cordials and fruit juices. Food acids soften tooth material and dissolve the minerals in tooth enamel, causing holes (cavities or caries). In severe cases, teeth may be ‘eaten’ right down to the gum.

Limit sugary foods. Bacteria in dental plaque change sugars into acids.

Protect your teeth from injury. Wear a mouthguard or full-face helmet when playing sports.

Try to save a knocked out tooth. If possible, hold the tooth back in place while you seek immediate dental advice. If this is not possible, wrap the tooth in plastic or place it in milk and seek dental advice immediately.
