Boat Owners Need to Stay Safe<\/h2>\n

Boat owners need to know how to protect themselves and others. For example, if you want to enjoy alcoholic beverages and you’re of legal age, it’s essential to know Pennsylvania’s laws about Boating Under the Influence. <\/p>\n

Boating Under the Influence <\/h3>\n

Just as it’s illegal to operate a car under the influence of alcohol, it is also illegal to operate a boat while using alcohol; those laws were enacted in 1985. The legal limit for alcohol is 0.10% BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) (1). However, impairment may affect you before that limit. <\/p>\n

If You Are Suspected of BUI<\/h3>\n

If a waterways conservation officer believes you are under the influence, they will ask you to perform a field sobriety test. If your test leads the officer to think you are under the influence, you will be asked to take a chemical sobriety test. Those results will determine whether you are charged with a crime. <\/p>\n
