What is the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for drivers over 21 in Texas?

0.05%
0.08%
0.10%
0.12%

The correct answer is: 0.08%

In Texas, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for drivers over the age of 21 is set at 0.08%. This means that if a driver has a BAC at or above this level, they are considered impaired and can be charged with driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI). The 0.08% threshold is established to maintain road safety and reduce the incidence of alcohol-related accidents. Understanding this limit is crucial for responsible drinking and driving behavior. Staying below this BAC not only helps avoid legal penalties but also enhances safety for the driver, passengers, and other road users. It indicates a significant level of impairment, reinforcing the importance of moderation and the potential consequences of excessive drinking.
