Fairly high, overall.

Seriously, we assume you meant for driving. In California you will be charged with your first DUI if your BAC is .08%. However, if you have a previous conviction, you can be charged with a level as little as .01%. Since that is low enough to be acquired without drinking, it is a good idea to avoid all products with alcohol in them if you have a DUI record.

Comment: In California, 0.08% is called the "discretionary limit". This means that with a BAC reading of less than 0.08% the officer can decide, "at his discretion" if you were impaired or not. At 0.08% and above, he must arrest you for driving under the influence - that decision is no longer his (or hers).

What is considered impaired bac in New Jersey?

In New Jersey, a person is guilty of drunk driving if he/ she operates a motor vehicle with a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of 0.08 percent or greater. BAC refers to the amount of alcohol in your blood. Although the law refers to a 0.08 percent BAC, you can be convicted of driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor even when your BAC is below 0.08 percent. Consuming even small amounts of alcohol dulls the senses, decreases reaction time, and hampers judgement, vision and alertness. If you consume any amount of alcohol and your driving is negatively impacted, you can be convicted of drunk driving. If you are under the age of 21 you will be convicted if you have any detectactable alcohol (over 0.01 BAC)
