Cost Reduction Program $$$
I wanted to give everyone a heads up: I was able to get 75% off my fees for this shitty device. When i initially called the DMV for instructions about installing- the dude in charge of interlock devices informed me about a program for people who cant/have financial burdens. He told me to contact the DMV and request a hearing for cost reduction.
Yesterday I met with a judge who ruled I deserved reduced fees. He also told me i was able to obtain retroactive costs. I dont believe it includes the installation fee from your auto body shop, but for everything else. It was a smooth situation, and I sat 1:1 with a judge alone in an office. I have to pay $60 every other week for the device ($120 a month). I now only have to pay $30 a month. Its a huge relief. I want all of us who experience the burdon of our mistakes to receive some sort of support with this extremely expensive ripoff machine.
DM me if you want more information on the process
