Drink Driving

In New South Wales, stringent laws govern drink driving, setting the legal limit for an unrestricted license holder at 0.05 prescribed concentration of alcohol (PCA). Penalties for drink driving vary based on the PCA, the driver’s traffic history, and how the offense is prosecuted.

For unrestricted license holders with a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) between 0.05 and 0.079, a first offense may result in an infringement notice and an immediate notice of suspension or a Court Attendance Notice.

Drivers exceeding a PCA of 0.08 will receive a Court Attendance Notice and an immediate notice of suspension. Parramatta Criminal Lawyers | AMA Legal is committed to thoroughly reviewing the evidence, challenging evidence if necessary, and exploring all available legal avenues to secure the best possible outcome for your case.
