Not quite. The answer is Less than 0.02%

In Wyoming, it is illegal for a driver under 21 years of age to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.02% or above.

Hence, for drivers under 21, a BAC limit of under 0.02% is effectively zero tolerance.

Not quite. The answer is Increased alertness

Alcohol can impair vision, slow down reactions, and dull judgement. Alcohol does not increase alertness.

Not quite. The answer is wait for a day or two.

The more alcohol that gets into your body to make you intoxicated, the longer it will take your liver to break it all down. The liver can break down about one standard drink (one ounce of hard liquor, a one-half glass of wine, or a 12-ounce can of beer) per hour. If you consume a great deal of alcohol, it can take as long as a day or two for your body to fully recover.

Not quite. The answer is 5

If your license is suspended for DWUI, you may be eligible for limited driving privileges if it was your first offense and you have not had a probationary license in the previous five years.
