What Do You Know About New Mexico’s Drinking and Driving Laws?

In response to the increasing number of DWIs in New Mexico, the legislature passed strict laws to reduce the number of DWI accidents and arrests. These new laws include reducing the legal level of intoxication to 0.08 percent BAC and implementing tougher penalties for lawbreakers. The None for the Road test was created in 1993 to increase awareness about the issue and to educate drivers about the penalties for breaking the law.
