Description

If you reside in the 336, we have an announcement that will blow your mind. Okay, it’s probably not that awesome, but it could make your ignition interlock experience exponentially more convenient. As part of our efforts to provide statewide coverage for our customers, we’ve recently opened a new Monitech Service Center in High Point. Its location, near the intersection of Main Street and Business 85 at 405 East Fairfield Rd, was chosen for its accessibility and will provide convenience for customers living in High Point, Archdale, Trinity, Jamestown, Greensboro and Thomasville! Remember that our Service Centers are your one stop shop for any and every issue pertaining to your device. Your relationship with Montiech first starts at a Service Center when you go to get your interlock device installed. Afterwards, all scheduled appointments will take place at your area’s Service Center. Additionally, any damage or malfunction to your device as well as any failed breath tests will require you to come into your Service Center for maintenance or recalibration.

In early 1989, the founder of Monitech approached the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles (NCDMV) about using the emerging technology of a breath alcohol ignition interlock device (BAIID) as a highway safety measure. The BAIID would allow drivers who had had multiple DWI convictions and their licenses revoked to legally drive again by requiring them to provide an alcohol breath sample before starting their cars. This would prove to the NCDMV that these drivers had changed their behavior; it would further provide the NCDMV with the assurance that repeat DWI offenders were no longer endangering the motoring public. At that time, and still to this day, the NCDMV had a “conditionally restored” program for repeat DWI offenders: N.C. Gen. Stat. § 20-19(d) & (e). Repeat DWI offenders could obtain a conditionally restored drivers license if (1) their license had been revoked for at least three years and (2) they could produce three witnesses who swore under oath that the offender had not used alcohol in at least one year.

Monitech, Inc. provides a fully integrated ignition interlock device program including manufacturing, installation, service and comprehensive monitoring and reporting. Founded in 1989, Monitech partnered with North Carolina to create the state’s original ignition interlock program. Today, Monitech serves customers from all 100 counties in North Carolina, and it does so through industry-leading technology, a statewide network of service centers and a team of full-time certified technicians located within 50 miles of any North Carolina citizen.
