A motor vehicle crash is recognized as alcohol related or one of those drinking accidents when at least a driver or a non-occupant (like a pedestrian) that is involved in that crash has a BAC or blood alcohol concentration of 0.01 gram/deciliter (g/dL) or above. A person involved in a crash is considered alcohol impaired when exhibiting a 0.08 BAC or higher. These are the classifications as described by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or NHTSA.
