Explanation
Alcohol tolerance tends to decrease with age, making older drivers more susceptible to the effects of alcohol and increasing the risk of alcohol-related driving issues. Alcohol can impair your ability to drive safely and reduce your reaction time to what you see and hear on the road. Regardless of age, it is illegal to drive after consuming excessive amounts of alcohol. In California, drivers age 21 and older are prohibited from operating a vehicle with a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher.
