A driver under 21 years of age can be convicted of illegal consumption of alcohol if his or her blood alcohol content (BAC) is at least ______ but less than ______.

Correct answer

  • 0.00%; 0.01%
  • 0.02%; 0.08%
  • 0.01%; 0.02%

Explanation

A driver under 21 years of age can be convicted of illegal consumption of alcohol if his or her blood alcohol content (BAC) is at least 0.02% but less than 0.08%. If the young driver's BAC is 0.08% or more, he or she can be convicted of driving under the influence (DUI) just as if he or she were an adult. (Note: Most persons will reach a BAC of 0.02% or more after having consumed just one alcoholic drink. Hence a legal limit of under 0.02% is effectively zero tolerance.)
