 "firstOffenseIidNote": "Mandatory for every alcohol-related first conviction. Under A.R.S. § 28-1381(I)(6), a person convicted of a first DUI that involved intoxicating liquor 'shall be required by the department, on report of the conviction, to equip any motor vehicle the person operates with a certified ignition interlock device pursuant to section 28-3319'; § 28-3319(D)(1)(a) sets the period at twelve months. The requirement does not apply to drug-only DUI convictions, for which the court 'may' order a device (§ 28-1381(P)). Under § 28-3319(H), MVD defers the remainder of the 12-month period after six months for a first (§ 28-1381(I)) offender who completes a 16-hour alcohol education program, maintains the device, and meets the other listed conditions. Extreme DUI (0.15–0.20, § 28-1382(A)(1)) also carries 12 months; super-extreme DUI (0.20 or more, § 28-1382(A)(2)) carries 18 months.",
 "sr22Note": "SR-22 (ADOT MVD calls it 'Future Financial Responsibility'). A.R.S. § 28-3319(A) bars MVD from ending a DUI suspension/revocation or issuing a special ignition interlock restricted license until the person provides proof of financial responsibility. The MVD SR-22 page states the filing is required for 3 years from the end date of a court-conviction DUI suspension, an implied-consent suspension, or an alcohol/drug-related revocation, and throughout the restricted-license period for a SIIRDL (not required for a SIIRDL issued due to an Admin Per Se suspension).",
