Colorado takes driving under the influence seriously, with laws that can result in significant penalties even for first-time offenders.
Understanding BAC Limits
In Colorado, the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit is 0.08% for drivers 21 and over. For commercial drivers, it's 0.04%, and for drivers under 21, any detectable alcohol can result in charges.
Penalties for DUI
Penalties increase with each offense and can include jail time, fines, license suspension, and mandatory alcohol education classes.
