BOATING UNDER THE INFLUENCE |
|
It is a violation of Florida law to
operate a vessel while impaired by alcohol or other drugs. A vessel operator
suspected of boating under the influence must submit to sobriety tests and a
physical or chemical test to determine blood or breath alcohol content.
In Florida, a vessel operator is presumed to be under the influence if their blood or breath alcohol level is at or above .08. Any person under 21 years of age who is found to have a breath alcohol level of .02 or higher and operates or is in actual physical control of a vessel is in violation of Florida law. |
