If you are not a resident of North Carolina for the entire year while having an ignition interlock requirement, it can be challenging to have the interlock results recorded and sent to the North Carolina DMV. This often leads to complications when individuals who hold a valid driver’s license from another state receive an ignition interlock DWI in North Carolina. According to the current opinion from the attorney general’s office, if you are licensed in another state and reside outside of North Carolina, you can legally drive through North Carolina without completing an ignition interlock. However, if you reside in North Carolina and have not fulfilled the ignition interlock requirement, driving would be considered driving while your license is revoked. Therefore, it is crucial to consult a DWI attorney if you have an ignition interlock and an out-of-state license.
