Because of the increased danger associated with tractor-trailers, buses, delivery vans, and other commercial vehicles, truck drivers are held to a lower threshold for driving under the influence in Arizona. By state law, CDL-licensed drivers are charged with a class 1 misdemeanor DUI if they are found to have a blood alcohol concentration of 0.04 percent or greater. The charge applies whether the driver was on duty in a commercial vehicle or in a private vehicle at the time.
