Question 4993

If you have held your driver's license for one and a half years, what is the maximum blood alcohol level allowed for driving?

  1. 0.5 grams per liter of blood.
  2. 0.25 grams per liter of blood.
  3. 0.3 grams per liter of blood.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: 0.3 grams per liter of blood.

After a year and a half with your license, you are still within the first two years, so the lower limit applies to you. If you are an adult, you must not exceed 0.3 g/l in blood or 0.15 mg/l in breath. The limit of 0.5 g/l applies once you reach two years, and 0.25 is the general breath alcohol limit in mg/l, not the blood alcohol limit.
