Car permit · Alcohol and drugs
For a driver who is not yet 21, what blood alcohol level counts as driving under the influence?
Correct answer: Any amount of alcohol that can be detected.
Answer options
- AA blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher
- BAny amount of alcohol that can be detected Correct
- CA blood alcohol concentration of 0.05% or higher
Why
Under zero-tolerance rules, a driver younger than 21 may not drive with any measurable alcohol in the blood, so even one drink can lead to charges. The 0.08% figure is the usual limit for adult drivers, not for drivers under 21.
