Zero Tolerance means like if you were caught "committing" the "crime", you would automatically be sentenced to punishment. For instance in schools. Lets Say a straight A student was working on a project at school and she/he pulls out a construction knife to cut a hard piece of wood. He/She will be issued a punishment lacking Common Sense or even hearing an explanation. Also lets say an average student at lunch was just hanging out and a pocket knife is dropped into his lap and a staff member sees it. That person will be punished without hearing the explanation. This law is usually referred to as the Zero Intelligence Law. Like I was recently Force to do community service for being "Truant" even though i was going to skoal and was running late. They did not Hear my explanation and i was doomed to 30 hours of community service. That's is the zero tolerance law.
In the context of a driver of a vehicle, zero tolerance means that if you are under 21 and stopped while driving and you have a BAC (blood alcohol content) of more than .02, you can be charged with a violation of the zero tolerance law and your drivers license can be suspended and there is a substantial fine. It is not a DUI.

Zero-tolerance simply means NO exceptions. Even kids know the rules & laws about drinking below the legal age limit - yet they constantly try to break those rules.
