2021 House Bill 4308 ↩

Senate Roll Call 268: Passed

To revise the 2021 sunset on the .08 grams per 100 milliliters blood-alcohol-content (BAC) threshold for drunk driving offences. Under current law, on Oct. 1, 2021 the limit returns to .10 grams per 100 milliliter. Under the bill, that will happen five years after the state treasurer certifies no federal highway funding is conditioned on compliance with a national blood alcohol limit. The .08 limit was originally imposed by the federal government as a condition of state’s getting a share of federal gas tax and other road money.
