Question 6256
If you have held your driver's license for less than two years, what is your maximum permitted blood alcohol level?
- 0.5 grams per liter of blood.
- 0.25 grams per liter of blood.
- 0.3 grams per liter of blood.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: 0.3 grams per liter of blood.
If you’ve held your first license for less than two years and you’re an adult, you must not exceed 0.3 g/l in blood or 0.15 mg/l in exhaled air. The general blood alcohol limit is 0.5 g/l, while 0.25 is the general breath alcohol figure, not the blood alcohol figure.
