Now I know that I am a little older now but when I was 20 the legal age was 21 and that at 21 if I would have taken a BAC test several hours later and still had a .059 that I would assume would be well over the .08 legal limit if taken immediately after, and unless this kid had been drinking since age 12 I am assuming he has not built up that much of a tolerance. This is all assuming that the article is correct in its facts! and I say that with a grain of Salt.

you don't even have to look that far into it, ny has no tolerance laws, if you're under 21 and your BAC is above .2, youre liable as if you're full blown drunk.
