Snohomish Underage DUI Attorney

Underage DUI Lawyer in Lynwood

According to Washington State law, it is illegal for any individual under the age of 21 to operate a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol.  If an individual is operating a car and is over the age of 21, the legal blood alcohol concentration limit is .08%.  For a person who is under the legal drinking age, the BAC limit is much lower.  If you are under the age of 21 and you have been pulled over and found to have a BAC of .02% or more, you will be arrested and charged with underage DUI.  This charge is classified as a misdemeanor offense in Washington.

Even if your driving is not impaired and the arresting officer finds that your BAC is over .02%, you will be charged with underage DUI.  Over .02% is enough to indicate a criminal violation of the law in cases of underage drinking and driving.
