According to the manual's High Rate DUI table, at what BAC is a commercial vehicle driver subject to those penalties?
-
A.
.04 or more Correct
-
B.
.02 or more
-
C.
.08 or more
-
D.
.10 or more
The answer is ".04 or more"
Table 2's note lists commercial vehicle drivers at a BAC of .04 or more, a stricter cutoff than the .10 to .159 headline range Table 2 sets for legal-drinking-age non-commercial drivers. A driver drawn to C is carrying the .08 adult DUI limit across to commercial drivers and skipping the separate commercial-driver figure Table 2 spells out in its note.
The traps in the wrong answers
B. .02 or more
The .02 figure in Table 2's note covers school bus drivers and under-21 drivers, not commercial vehicle drivers. This answer picks the first BAC number that appears in Table 2's note as if a single threshold covered every non-standard driver listed there.
C. .08 or more
The .08 figure is the general adult DUI level from Table 1; commercial vehicle drivers face the stricter .04 threshold spelled out in Table 2's note. This answer carries the .08 legal-drinking-age adult limit across to commercial drivers and ignores the separate commercial-driver figure Table 2 sets out.
D. .10 or more
.10 is the lower bound of Pennsylvania's High Rate BAC range for legal-drinking-age non-commercial drivers, not the commercial-driver threshold in the same table's note. This answer reads the .10 headline at the top of Table 2 as the commercial-driver figure and skips the .04 spelled out in the note underneath.
