Question 6188
If you have held your driver's license for less than 2 years, the maximum permitted alcohol level is...
- 0.15 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air.
- 0.3 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air.
- 0.25 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: 0.15 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air.
Until you’ve held your first license for two years, you’re a novice driver for alcohol-limit purposes. If you’re an adult, you must not exceed 0.15 mg/l in exhaled air or 0.3 g/l in blood; if you’re a minor, the limit is 0.0. The general limit is 0.25 mg/l, while 0.3 mg/l confuses the blood alcohol figure with the breath alcohol figure.
