Underage DUI

Fort Myers Underage DUI Lawyer

Charged with Underage Drinking and Driving?

The state of Florida has a Zero Tolerance law when it comes to drivers under the age of 21. This means that it is unlawful for an underage driver to operate a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol level (BAL) of .02% or greater. If they are found to be driving a motor vehicle and blow over 0.02%, then their driver's license will be automatically suspended for 6 months.

How much alcohol does it take to reach the legal limit? There is no definitive answer since weight plays an important role; however, the 0.02% limit means that an underage driver cannot have one drink and drive legally. If you, or your son or daughter has been arrested for DUI, you should contact a Fort Myers criminal attorney from Calvo & Calvo, Attorneys at Law for immediate legal assistance.

If you are facing charges for drunk driving while underage turn to Calvo & Calvo, Attorneys At Law for the defense you need. Contact us today!
