How Is Drunk Driving Defined in California?
In the state of California, a motorist is considered legally “drunk” if their ability to operate a vehicle is impaired because of the use of drugs or alcohol. When someone’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is at least 0.08%, they are over the legal limit.
However, it is important to note that motorists may still be considered under the influence if they are unable to drive safely. For those under the age of 21, California has a zero-tolerance policy for drinking and operating a vehicle.
In other words, those under 21 can be charged with a DUI if they have any detectable amount of alcohol in their system. For questions about how the statutes in California may affect your tort claim, reach out to the experts at the firm of Morgan & Morgan.
What Is the Penalty for Drunk Driving in California?
The penalty for a DUI conviction in California can vary depending on the circumstances of the case. In many cases, convicted drunk drivers face hefty fines and potentially up to six months in jail.
