The instruments
The provisions
| Section | What it does | Official text |
|---|---|---|
| 24220(b)(1)(A) | Defines the mandated system as one that can passively monitor driver performance and prevent or limit vehicle operation when impairment is detected. This is the passive monitoring + operation-limiting pairing in a single definition. | The text |
| 24220(b)(1)(B) | Alternative definition: a system that can passively and accurately detect a driver's blood alcohol concentration and prevent or limit vehicle operation above the legal limit. | The text |
| 24220(c) | Requires the Secretary to issue a final rule prescribing the new safety standard, with the compliance phase-in following in two successive periods. The operative technical scope is therefore set by agency rulemaking rather than by the section itself — the delegation that root cause rc1 identifies. | The text |
