Why Zero Tolerance Laws Matter
Zero tolerance laws are strict for good reason they save lives. For drivers under the legal drinking age, which is 21 in all US states, the rules are clear: no amount of alcohol is acceptable when behind the wheel. These laws are unyielding but necessary to help prevent the higher risk of accidents that come with underage drinking and driving.
Understanding these laws is not just a matter of legal compliance; it's about ensuring the safety of young drivers and everyone else on the road. Knowledge is power, and we believe that when minors and their guardians are informed, they're more likely to make smarter, safer decisions.
