Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When your blood alcohol content (BAC) is 0.08% or higher, you’re considered legally impaired in the U.S. While you are certain to be arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI) when your BAC is at or over 0.08%, you can still be charged if your BAC is at any level above 0.00%.
Detailed explanation-2: -At a BAC of 0.08 percent compared with a zero BAC, the likelihood of involvement in a fatal crash is 10 times as high among 16-20 year-old drivers, 7 times as high among drivers ages 21-34, and 6 times as high among drivers 35 and older.
