What is the Georgia blood alcohol limit?
I’m going to Savannah to visit one of my friends from high school. She says the bar scene is awesome downtown, but she lives over on Tybee Island. I want to make sure I can drive home legally if we go for a few drinks. What is the blood alcohol limit in Georgia?

DUI laws Georgia
are similar to 48 other states in the country. The Georgia
blood alcohol limit is .08, which means that a few drinks in a short time could result in a DUI.If you’re arrested for a DUI in Georgia, you could face some stiff penalties, including:
- Up to one year of jail time with a minimum of 24 hours in jail
- Between $300 and $1,000 in fines not including court costs
- License suspension of up to one year
Due to the severe penalties, social stigma, and rising car insurance rates, you’re better to err on the side of caution. If you get a DUI, just remember that the
