In Nevada, an adult driver age 21 or older is considered legally intoxicated (DUI) at what Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC)?
The answer
Answer: A. In Nevada, operating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 percent or higher constitutes Driving Under the Influence (DUI). For commercial drivers, the legal limit is 0.04 percent, and drivers can be convicted at lower levels if their driving ability is noticeably impaired. Nevada law also establishes severe administrative penalties and license revocations that take effect immediately upon arrest for driving under the influence.
