BROWN LAW OFFICE DUI/OVI BLOG

 

A common question people ask is how many drinks will put me over the legal limit in Ohio?  It’s a difficult question to answer, because numerous factors affect the answer, such as how much you drank, how quickly you drank it, how long before being pulled over you drank it, the alcohol content, your body weight and metabolism, certain medical conditions, and whether you consumed any food.  Your BAC may be constantly changing, and it is possible that your BAC could rise between the time you are stopped and the time you submit to the breathalyzer.  That means you could be charged with OVI/DUI even if you are under the limit at the time of stop.  An experienced OVI/DUI defense attorney can determine the best defense depending on your BAC outcome.

In Ohio, you will be charged with an OVI/DUI if your BAC is at a certain percentage. For drivers under the age of 21, the BAC limit is .02.  21 and older is .08, and commercial drivers is .04.
