Best Answer

The DUI laws in Illinois use the Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) standard, along with age, to measure and determine at which point a driver is considered to be under the influence. If the driver is under the age of 21, their BAC is not to exceed .00%. If the driver is over the age of 21, then their BAC is not to exceed .08%

Illinois has some of the toughest Illegal Consumption/Possession laws of all states. If you're under 21 and are caught with alcohol (consuming it or having it in your possession), there is a good possibility that you will lose your driver's license. That's the case even if no vehicle was involved. It's also the case even if you are awarded court supervision. Some areas have city ordinances or diversion programs that can possibly keep you from losing your license, but it is tricky. It becomes even more complicated if you were in a vehicle because Zero Tolerance laws can add to the period of your license suspension. (i.e. take the test and blow above a .00 and lose your license for 3 months; refuse to blow and lose them for 6 months) You can get cited for zero tolerance and get a suspension, while also getting cited for Illegal Consumption/Possession and get a consecutive suspension. Be careful, and get a lawyer.

There is not a limit of drinks that you can order at one time. If the bartenders sees that you are drunk, they can refuse to serve you more.Ê
