Question 7808

Drivers of vehicles used for public service, such as taxis or VTC, what blood alcohol level must they not exceed when driving on roads open to general traffic?

  1. 0.25 grams of alcohol per liter of blood.
  2. 0.30 grams of alcohol per liter of blood.
  3. 0.15 grams of alcohol per liter of blood.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: 0.30 grams of alcohol per liter of blood.

If you drive a public service vehicle, like the taxi in the image, you must not exceed 0.3 g/l in blood or 0.15 mg/l in exhaled air, even if you have held your license for many years. Neither 0.15 nor 0.25 g/l is a legal blood alcohol limit.
