How Is Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) Measured?

You may be arrested for a presumed or suspected DUI after a blood, breath or urine test has resulted in a BAC of .08 or greater. The amount of alcohol in a person’s body is measured by the weight of alcohol in a certain volume of blood. This is referred to as the blood alcohol content. For a BAC of .08, that means that alcohol makes up less than one-tenth of 1 percent of a person’s blood. Do not let yourself be convicted of a presumed or suspected DUI without contacting an experienced lawyer to examine your situation. If mistakes have been made during the arrest or during BAC testing, we can catch them and protect your rights. With the right attorney, the law can be on your side.
