San Diego Juvenile DUI Defense Lawyer

California DUI Attorney

Drunk Driving Defense in CA

California Zero Tolerance laws were set up to discourage juvenile drunk driving by making the penalties for this crime harsher and by lowering the allowed blood alcohol content (BAC) limit to 0.01 and higher. These penalties for underage drinking and driving are understandably much worse than being grounded for a month with no computer game privileges. A conviction may entail incarceration, fines (to be paid by the parents), mandatory counseling and you will lose the use of your driver’s license for a year. If your BAC measures 0.05% or higher, you can be charged with a violation. If it is 0.08 and above, you can add misdemeanor to your list of charges, and you may be charged as an adult.

Remember, if your child is arrested, he/she is not under any legal obligation to submit to Field Sobriety Tests but will be required by law to have a breath or blood test to determine their BAC.
