About the Law

Specifically this law is related to driving a car drunk with a child under 15 years of age as a passenger in the vehicle. Ordinarily law enforcement has an eye out for anyone they believe may be driving while intoxicated. They watch for speeding or erratic driving, and at times will stop a person if they are leaving an area where they know alcohol is being consumed. After they pull you over, a BAC (breath alcohol concentration) test may be administered as well as other Field Sobriety Tests. If you register at .08% or above, with a child passenger in your car, you will be arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI) with a child passenger.
