  1. Proposed Canadian National Technical Standard for Vehicular Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock DevicesICADTS/TIAFT/8th IIS August 27, 2007

  2. Presentation Purpose • To provide a description of the work done to date developing a new Canadian National technical standard for Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Devices (BAIIDs) (Phases I and II); • To present an outline of next steps and associated schedule (Phases III and IV); and • To solicit input and comments from interested stakeholders and industry experts.

  3. Background • Phase I (October to November 2006) • Discovery; • Work Plan; • Presentation at fall CCMTA meeting in Ottawa; • Fielded questions from various jurisdictions • Phase II (December 2006 to the present) • Basis of today’s presentation; • Drafting proposed standard- Submitted April 3rd • Currently being reviewed by TC and Provinces

  4. References • More productive and effective to consider other jurisdictions’ existing/previous documents. • This proposed standard is based on the following existing documents: • United States Federal Register/NHTSA - 1991 • Province of Alberta - 1992 • Australian BAIID specifications – 2003 • European CENELEC – 2004 • Designed to be a performance standard.

  5. Contacts • Discussions with: • Transport Canada; • Industry suppliers and manufacturers; and • Lung capacity/spirometry experts.

  6. Possible Device Pitfalls • High Cost; • Low reliability; • Ease of circumvention or tampering; • Difficulty to use or understand; • Vibration and shock from vehicle; • Triggered by non-alcoholic chemicals or substances; and • Inability to function in Canada’s extreme climatic conditions.

  7. Quantitative Thresholds • Ambient Cold Temperature  -45 C (with 10 minute warm-up cycle) • Ambient Hot Temperature  +85 C • Humidity  95 % RH at +40C • Shock and Vibration  1,050 Hz @ 5 mm disp. • Device setpoint  0.02 BAC • Type of Sensor  Alcohol specific (e.g. fuel cell) • Breath volume  Minimum of 1.5 L • Average power consumption  200 mA/24 hr

  8. Mandatory Features…. • Random re-tests; • Emergency re-start; • Emergency Override; • Immediate recall mode; • Bypass and tampering; • Violation reset/shutdown; • Shall not shut down a running engine; and • Human driver identification.

  9. ….Mandatory Features • Language  Sensor head displays in French and English; • Documentation  Operators and Maintainers; • EMI/EMC  Interference with on board equipment; • Predictable calibration cycle; • Real time clock  For data capture; and • Data capture and memory  Program Officers

  10. Lung Capacity of Adults

  11. Significance of Lung Capacity • By selecting 1.5 L as the lower threshold: • ~2.5 % of adults would be medically incapable of delivering an appropriate sample. • These people would therefore be excluded from a BAIID program and unable to drive. • Data were derived from a US study of over 15,000 spirometer tests. • Canadian results should be similar.

  12. Work Plan Phase 2: Draft Standard • Delivered April 3rd 2007; • Currently with Transport Canada and Provinces for review; • Transport Canada and CSTT to review document and determine delivery date for draft final; • Input from non TC stakeholders?

  13. Work Plan Phase 3: Create a test plan Target dates late fall 2007 Develop detailed test plan, to include • Assumptions • Test procedures • List of test equipment • List of relevant standards (e.g. SAE J1211) • Requirements for test sites/facilities

  14. Work Plan Phase 4: Perform certification testing Target dates – Winter/Spring 2008 and beyond To be paid for by equipment suppliers, manufacturers and/or distributors • Set up test lab, including climate chamber; • Determine fixed cost for each test sample; • Perform tests for interested equipment suppliers; and • Write and deliver technical reports for each model tested.

  15. Test Scenarios • Extreme heat and cold (e.g. +85 C and -45C); • Circumvention and tampering; • Vibration (on shaker table); • False positives/negatives (e.g. other chemicals); • Impact (e.g. drop tests); • Accuracy; • Reliability/Maintainability at various temperatures; • Endurance and self calibration; • Deep lung breath/human sample vs. CO2; and • EMI/EMC.
