The Zero Tolerance Law applies to individuals of what age regarding alcohol consumption and driving?

  1. Under 21

  2. Under 18

  3. Under 25

  4. Under 20

The correct answer is: Under 21

The Zero Tolerance Law specifically targets individuals under the age of 21 when it comes to alcohol consumption and driving. This law was implemented to address the increased risks associated with underage drinking and driving because young drivers often lack the experience and judgment necessary to safely operate a vehicle, especially under the influence of alcohol. Under this law, any measurable amount of alcohol in the bloodstream can lead to legal penalties for those under 21, emphasizing the state’s commitment to reducing alcohol-related accidents among youth.
