Answer:True

Step-by-step explanation:

One can be considered legally intoxicated in the U.S. if your blood alcohol content is 0.08 percent or higher. In the case of bob blood alcohol is higher than the 0.1 level i.e. he is legally intoxicated. While you are confident that you will be arrested on suspicion of driving under alcohol if your blood alcohol level is at or above 0.08%, you can still be prosecuted if your Blood alcohol content is above 0.00% at any point.

We all know, however, that conventional wisdom may be incorrect, and sometimes shockingly so. The very first drink starts to intoxicate. No matter how much you have drunk, you should never drink and drive. You may be affected and charged even if the blood alcohol level is less than 0.08%.
