Regardless of whether you are over the legal limit, having any alcohol and driving in Arizona when you are a minor can lead to serious consequences like:
Loss of your driver’s license for two years
Jail
A conviction on your criminal record that cannot be expunged
Issues obtaining licenses, passing background checks, qualifying for loans, and being admitted to college

Arizona Revised Statutes § 4-244(34) makes it a crime to drive a car with any alcohol in your system if you are a minor. Having a blood alcohol concentration, or BAC, of less than the legal limit, 0.08, is not a defense to this crime.
