Driving over .08 means that the vehicle driver has a blood-alcohol ratio of over 80 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. Though drinking and driving are not illegal by itself, the matter gets aggravated by the refusal to provide a breath sample or the resultant impaired driving, causing death or bodily harm to individuals on the road.
The consequences of non-compliance with driving rules vary, though an impaired driving charge is criminal. A conviction for a driving offence could:
​ Result in a jail sentence or a fine
​ Burden you with a criminal record
​ Prohibit you from driving/suspend your licence
​ Drastically increase your insurance rates
​ Impact your future work/travel choices
