What is the legal limit for drinking and driving in California?

The Law Offices of Virginia L Landry, Inc.

"In California the legal limit is .08%. But there is a separate charge that can be brought against you, just the driving under the influence, and that could be where any alcohol in your system affects your ability to safely operate your car with the same care and prudence that a reasonable person would have who is alcohol free. I'm Virginia Landry. For the last nineteen years in Orange County, I have helped when bad things happen to good people. If you have been arrested for a DUI, please call."

Can I refuse to take the breath test in California?

The Law Offices of Virginia L Landry, Inc.

In California, if you refuse to take a breath test, the police officer, realistically, will arrest you. There are different consequences for the refusal to take a test, such as: if you are convicted in court, it's mandatory jail. If you refuse to take a test and the police officer believes you're under the influence of alcohol, that refusal ends up with a longer license loss than if you take a test and you are significantly over the legal limit.
