Chris is 19 and has a regular driver's license. At a party, friends say that one beer will keep Chris under the legal limit for driving. Under South Carolina law, what is the alcohol concentration limit for a driver of Chris's age?
Correct answer: 0.02 percent, a lower limit than the one for drivers age 21 or older
Why
A driver under 21 who drives with 0.02 percent or more loses the driving privilege for at least three months, and a refusal to take the test brings a suspension of at least six months. It is also illegal for a person under 21 to buy, possess or drink alcohol. Alcohol affects vision at about 0.02 percent for every driver, so the safest choice is no alcohol at all before you drive.
