Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
A driver who is 40 years old has a BAC of 0.06 percent. An officer sees the car drift across the lane lines several times. Which statement is true?
Correct answer: The driver can still be convicted of DUI, because alcohol impaired the driving
Why
Alcohol affects each person differently, and even one drink can slow your reactions and weaken your judgment. That is why the law also punishes driving while under the influence, not only driving at 0.08 percent or more. The same applies to drugs: if any drug impairs your driving, you can face the same penalties as for alcohol.
