At what blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is a rider age 21 or older considered legally intoxicated?
Correct answer: 0.08%.
Answer options
- A0.08% Correct
- B0.02%
- C0.04%
Why
For riders 21 and older, 0.08% is the legal limit in nearly every state, and a BAC at or above it is enough for a DUI charge. Lower cutoffs, such as 0.04% for commercial drivers and 0.02% for under-21 drivers in many states, apply to other groups.
