For a minor the legal limit is -0-. Any alcohol may result in arrest.

Because California has a "zero tolerance" policy for individuals under 21. Any measurement over .01 is a violation of the law.

0.05. You need to hire a DUI specialist, and do it soon because you have only 10 days to save your license.

You are under 21 and not allowed to drink alcohol at all. There is a zero tolerance policy in California and most other states where you can be convicted with any trace of alcohol in your system.

The limit is zero. The DMV will take away your license for 1 year with no possible restricted license (except in rare critical need).
