What is the Legal Limit?
The “legal limit” refers to the level of blood alcohol content (BAC) that defines a person as legally intoxicated. In Arizona, the legal limit is 0.08% BAC for adult drivers of age 21 or older. For individuals under the age of 21, Arizona has a zero tolerance law and a legal limit of 0.02% BAC. Anyone under the age of 21 who is found to have even a small amount of alcohol in their system can be arrested for drunk driving. Commercial drivers can be charged with a DUI for a BAC of 0.04% or greater.
