Police officers use breath analyzers to test drivers for the presence of alcohol or other substances. They can tell if a driver is over the legal alcohol limit and therefore a danger to other drivers.
Alcohol impairs driving abilities. Lawmakers would like to stop inebriated people from driving because in most accidents with injuries, some of the people involved have alcohol in their blood. Breath alcohol tests are simple and fairly reliable.
The maximum BAC (blood-alcohol content) you are legally allowed to have before being considered illegal is 0.08% in the US. In the UK the limit is 35 micrograms of alcohol in 100 milliliters of breath.
their BAC limit is zero meaning L and P plate drivers can't drink ANY alcohol.

In Florida, the legal alcohol limit for a Class A driver is 0.04%. This means that a driver operating a commercial vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.04% or higher is considered legally intoxicated. It is lower than the limit for non-commercial drivers, which is 0.08%.
The minimal breath alcohol concentration of a driver who has failed an alcohol test depends on the legal limit in the jurisdiction where the test was conducted. In the US, a BAC of 0.08% or higher is considered illegal, while in some countries like Japan, any detectable level of alcohol is illegal while driving.
yes in Michigan if you have a commercial drivers license the limit is .04 whether you are in your big rig or your own personal vehicle. If you don't have a cdl a the limit is .08. As soon as you obtain your cdl it's cut in half
Drivers with a BAC of .016 (twice the legal limit) account for at least half of all alcohol-related traffic fatalities.
The prescribed limit is:35 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath.80 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood.107 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of urine.
Think about it for a minute. If your blood alcohol is zero, you are not drunk. You have not likely had a drink. That would be the vast majority of drivers on the road. Logistically, it would be impossible to pull over all drivers and test them for 0% alcohol.
