A: In Texas, on a first-time DWI, you may generally have the interlock removed from your vehicle after half-time. At our firm, we regularly file motions for early removal of interlock. Conditions of probation are at the discretion of the judge so it's important to talk to a local attorney who knows what the judge in your jurisdiction will do.
