These are highlights of the main provisions of Kentucky law pertaining to drunk driving.

'Per Se' BAC Level in Kentucky for everyone is .08, however those under the age of 21 fall under the zero tolerance law and must have no more than a BAC lever of .02.  Driver’s who have a BAC lever of .18 would find themselves dealing with an enhanced penalty or fine.  Other factors that contribute to an enhanced penalty would be if an accident occurred, having minors in the car at the time, previous convictions, or refusal of taking a chemical test.  In Kentucky there is an implied consent law which if suspected of drinking under the influence and you refuse to take a chemical test - blood, breath or urine then one can have their license suspended for a year.  Someone’s 1st Offense is license suspension for 30 days.  2nd Offense is license suspension for 1 year and mandatory jail time.  3rd Offense is 2 years and jail time.  Alcohol education, assessment or treatment is mandatory in order to restore driving privileges.  Participating in such program can reduce your fine or penalty.  Possible confiscation of your vehicle might happen along with possible ignition interlock, a machine that you must pay for and maintain.  It is hooked up to your engine to detect alcohol in the driver. The driver must blow into the machine to start the car and continue to periodically blow into the device to keep the car in motion. If the device senses alcohol, the car will not start or will turn itself off.  And the driver and passenger are both effected by the open container law, so no one is to possess or be drinking from an alcohol beverage in the vehicle.
