In Idaho it is DUI with a BAC of .02 or more under age 21, .04 or more in a commercial vehicle, or .08 or more at 21 and older; a BAC of .20 or more brings stiffer penalties, and you can still be convicted of DUI below .08. p. 80
For a first Idaho DUI conviction at 21 or older: up to six months in jail, a fine, and a license suspension of at least 90 and up to 180 days, with no driving at all for the first 30 days. p. 80-81
Under Idaho's implied consent law, anyone who drives or is in control of a motor vehicle has agreed to a BAC or drug test. p. 81
Failing an evidentiary test over the legal limit after a DUI arrest brings an ITD Administrative License Suspension (ALS), a civil penalty separate from criminal charges. p. 82
Alcohol affects judgment first and can give a false sense of confidence: a rider may feel they ride as well or better than sober while actually taking greater risks with impaired skills. The best way to minimize the risk is to separate drinking and riding. p. 82
Make an intelligent choice: don't drink (setting a limit or pacing yourself are poor alternatives). p. 83
