Explanation
If you are 21 or older, it is illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher. Driving under the influence puts your life and the lives of others at serious risk. If you are stopped by police and your BAC is over the legal limit, your driving privileges may be suspended. Even small amounts of alcohol can impair your ability to drive safely. If you are the designated driver, take that responsibility seriously and do not drink. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), one person is killed in a drunk-driving crash every 39 minutes on average, resulting in over 13,000 deaths each year.
