Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
A 20-year-old driver is arrested for operating under the influence of alcohol. What blood alcohol concentration triggers the separate under-21 administrative suspension rule?
Correct answer: 0.02%.
Why
For the specified arrest or charge involving a driver under 21, a blood alcohol concentration of 0.02% or higher triggers administrative consequences. This is separate from the criminal per-se threshold, and it is not permission to drink before driving. Age, prior history, refusal and qualifying treatment-program conditions can affect the suspension outcome.
