Under Colorado law, what Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) establishes driving under the influence (DUI per se) for adult drivers?
The answer
Answer: A. Driving with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent or higher constitutes driving under the influence per se for adult motorists age twenty-one or older. A first DUI conviction carries a nine-month driver license revocation, a fine of six hundred to one thousand dollars, and mandatory public service. Impaired drivers face mandatory jail sentences of five days up to one full year.
