BDifficulty 2/5

An adult obtained their first driving licence one and a half years ago and is driving a car. They have no earlier licence whose age can be counted. What is their maximum permitted blood alcohol concentration?

Correct answer

0.3 grams per litre of blood.

0.3 grams per litre of blood, corresponding to a breath limit of 0.15 milligrams per litre. The reduced limit in Article 20 applies during the first two years after obtaining the permit or licence. An earlier licence’s age counts only when driving vehicles for which it is sufficient; underage drivers have a zero-alcohol rule. The legal limit does not guarantee safe driving.
