Zero tolerance DUI laws are strict regulations set in place to combat underage drinking and driving. Essentially, these laws prohibit minors from operating a vehicle with any measurable amount of alcohol in their bloodstream.

In most states, while the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit for drivers over 21 is 0.08%, for those under 21, it's dramatically lower, often set at 0.02% or even 0.00%. This reflects the policy's no-nonsense approach to underage drinking and driving.
