  1. Yes because that would be an open container in your car with you. You would still get charged with DUI most likely. Or if you're lucky you would get off with an open container ticket. It is illegal no matter if its one or ten.


  2. Open container in a vehicle.  Yes it is illegal.  

    The officer would make you pour out the open beer, might give you a ticket for the offense.  If you get the ticket, you driving privileges could be suspended for at least 30 days.

    Drink the beer when you get home!

  3. There are some introduction of working from home.Hope that can help you!

  4. At a bar? - Depends on your weight and metabolism.

    In the car? - Yes, in every state it is illegal to have an open container.

  5. he would say, step out of the vehicle, put your hands behind you back...etc.

  6. Yes,

    in most states open alcoholic beverages are against the law in motor vehicles.

  7. Open container laws are tough. I recommend getting your windows tinted! ;)

  8. In most states, yes. I am not sure about Florida -- I haven't been there in a long time, but they used to sell beer at gas stations.

    Update:

    As of November, 2007, only one state (Mississippi) allows drivers to consume alcohol while driving (as long as the driver stays below the 0.08% blood alcohol content limit for drunk driving),

    The following states did not have open container laws as of Dec. 2007

    Alaska

    Arkansas

    Colorado

    Connecticut

    Delaware

    Indiana

    Louisiana

    Mississippi

    Missouri

    Montana

    Tennessee

    Virginia

    West Virginia

    Wyoming

  9. Drinking while driving and you will get busted, even if it is only one.  You should drink the beer first, then drive home.  If it's only one beer, the average adult man shouldn't have a BAC high enough to significantly impair judgment.

  10. It is illegal to drive under the influence. And to be drinking it on the way home, which would require you to have an open container. Hmm.. I think he may ask you to step out of the vehicle and place you under arrest, read you your rights and escort you to jail.

  11. he probably would say that you were driving drunk.

  12. Yes, that's an open container in a vehicle. You could get a dui for that. Doesn't that law suck? lol
