At what BAC level can a person be considered legally unfit to drive?

.02%
.05%
.08%
.10%

The correct answer is: .05%

In British Columbia, a person can be considered legally unfit to drive at a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level of .05%. This level aligns with provincial regulations aimed at ensuring public safety on the roads. When a driver has a BAC of .05% or greater, they are subject to serious consequences, including administrative penalties, which can include license suspensions and fines. The legislation is informed by research showing that even low levels of alcohol can impair judgment and reaction times, increasing the risk of accidents. It's important for those serving alcohol or managing venues to understand these legal thresholds to encourage responsible drinking and minimize risks of impaired driving. The rationale behind setting the limit at .05% is to balance personal responsibility with public safety, recognizing that while individuals are encouraged to drink responsibly, there must be stringent regulations to protect all road users. This effective approach fosters an environment where both drivers and non-drivers are safeguarded from the dangers associated with impaired driving.
