Final answer:

If a 16- or 17-year-old Connecticut driver refuses to submit to a BAC test, their license will be suspended for different periods of time depending on the offense.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a 16- or 17-year-old Connecticut driver refuses to submit to a BAC test, their license will be suspended for:

  1. 45 days for a first offense
  2. 90 days for a second offense
  3. 6 months for a third or subsequent offense

The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 required states to raise their drinking age to twenty-one or face a reduction in federal highway funds. This law applies to all states in the United States. In Connecticut, the legal drinking age is also twenty-one, so it is illegal for someone who is 16 or 17 years old to consume alcohol.
