ZERO TOLERANCE FOR INDIVIDUALS UNDER THE AGE OF 21
Zero tolerance is an administrative remedy that is available to drivers under the age of 21. It is important to note that this is only available when the district attorney consents to a transfer and the judge orders the transfer of the case to an administrative law judge.
If the case is transferred under the zero tolerance law and the minor has a blood alcohol content (BAC) of at least .02 and less than .07, the minor may face suspension of his or her license after an administrative hearing. If the minor’s BAC is more than .05 and less than .08, the minor may also face criminal charges for DWAI. If the minor has a BAC of .08 or more, the minor may face criminal charges for DWI.
Because of the complexity of the zero tolerance process, it is important to protect your rights and your future with a quality and skilled legal defense that is designed to help achieve the best possible outcome.
