Question: In Alberta, what Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) level for a fully licensed driver can result in criminal charges?

Answer options:

  • 0.02%
  • 0.05% ✅ 0.08%
  • 0.10%

Correct answer: 0.08%

Explanation: In Alberta, a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher is the limit under the Criminal Code of Canada, meaning driving at or above this level constitutes a federal criminal offense. While a BAC between 0.05% and 0.079% triggers immediate provincial administrative penalties like licence suspensions and vehicle seizures, it does not result in criminal charges. A BAC of 0.02% does not trigger penalties for fully licensed drivers, and while 0.10% is criminally illegal, it is not the baseline threshold. Class 7 exam candidates must distinguish between provincial administrative limits starting at 0.05% and federal criminal limits starting at 0.08%.
