Tennessee Underage DUI Laws

The state of Tennessee has stringent laws in place to manage the issue of underage drinking and driving. It is imperative for young individuals and their families to be aware of these laws to make informed decisions. In Tennessee, the legal drinking age is 21, and any person under this age caught operating a vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.02% or above can be charged with a DUI. This low BAC threshold underscores the state's commitment to prioritizing safety and discouraging any form of underage drinking and driving.

What are the Penalties for an Underage DUI in Tennessee?

The punishments for an underage DUI conviction in Tennessee can be severe and far-reaching. While penalties may vary based on the circumstances of each case, common consequences include fines, mandatory community service, probation, and the suspension of driving privileges.

The Tennessee Department of Safety may suspend driving privileges for one year for first-time offenders. Subsequent offenses bear even harsher penalties, including longer license suspensions, mandatory alcohol education programs, and the possibility of imprisonment.

Defenses Against Underage DUI Charges

When facing an underage DUI charge, it is essential to explore potential defenses to mitigate or dismiss the charges. Common defenses include:

  • Challenging the validity of the traffic discussion.
  • Disputing the accuracy of field sobriety tests.
  • Questioning the reliability of breathalyzer or blood test results.

We understand that each case is unique, and we meticulously examine the details to identify the most effective defense strategy. We are dedicated to protecting the rights and futures of young individuals, and we leverage our expertise to navigate the complexities of the legal system.

    Donnavon went above and beyond to help me out. You won’t find an attorney that puts as much care into his clients as Donnavon does. 5 stars isn’t enough!

    "Exceptional Legal Representation"
    To say that the legal representation that I received from Donnavon and his team was exceptional does not adequately describe the representation that I received from them. Throughout my situation I was able to witness just how much Donnavon was respected in the legal community firsthand, you are truly not going to want any other law firm representing you and your interests. The outcome of my situation could not have turned out better and I am truly grateful for his hard work.
