The legal BAC limit is the maximum allowable concentration of alcohol in a person's bloodstream while operating a vehicle. Crossing this limit can lead to significant legal consequences, including fines, license suspension, and even incarceration. Understanding the specific limit for your state is essential for every driver, and our team is ready to provide this information in an easy-to-understand format.

For most adult drivers, the BAC limit is 0.08%. However, for commercial drivers, the limit is often set at 0.04%.

Our experts are well-versed in these state-specific regulations and can offer guidance tailored to your particular situation.
