What is the Arkansas blood alcohol limit?

I’m going to a University of Arkansas football game this fall. While I’ve read that the tailgate is awesome, I still want to make sure I can drive back to my Airbnb without any issues. What is the blood alcohol limit in Arkansas?

That’s an exciting reason to visit the Natural State! Note that
DUI laws in Arkansas
are similar to other areas of the country, and the Arkansas blood alcohol limit is .08. If you’re going to the game, make sure to allow sufficient time to sober up, get a rideshare service, or shuttle to the game.
If you’re caught with a blood alcohol level above .08 in
Arkansas
, you’re subject to penalties that include:
  • Up to one year of jail time with a minimum of 24 hours
  • Between $150 and $1,000 in fines not including court costs
  • License suspension of a minimum of six months
Your car insurance rates are also likely to increase as a result. If you get a DWI, make sure that you use the
