7. Don’t Drink and Drive The Facts If you drive at twice the legal alcohol limit you are at least 30 times more likely to cause a road crash, than a driver who hasn't been drinking. Any amount of alcohol affects your ability to drive. The only safe option is not to drink alcohol if you plan to drive, and never offer an alcoholic drink to someone else who is intending to drive. What is the drink drive legal limit? The legal alcohol limit for drivers in Great Britain is 35 microgram's of alcohol per 100ml of breath. What are the current penalties? For exceeding the legal alcohol limit for drivers: - up to 6 months in prison - a fine of up to £5000 - a minimum of 12 months' disqualification.
