Question 784 · Car theory test
Do the limits for drink and drug driving differ if detected in the morning?
Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
No, they are the same at all times.
Official explanation
The limits for drink and drug driving do not change depending on the time of the day drivers are checked. Drink and drugs remain in the body for a period of time. A driver should think carefully before driving a vehicle the morning after taking drink or drugs and be aware that they could still be well over the limit.
