Final answer:
If you are under 21 and use a fake ID to try to buy alcohol, you will face criminal charges and penalties.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are under 21 and use or attempt to use a fake ID to establish a false age in an attempt to drink or purchase alcohol, you will face criminal charges and penalties. 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 was implemented to discourage underage drinking and reduce the number of intoxicated drivers on the road.
