Arizona has a policy of stringent punishment for any DUI offenses committed by those under 21 who have consumed alcohol. This is considered a “zero tolerance” policy for anyone under the age of 21. Irrespective of the amount or impact of the beverage, legal action will be taken if it is established that it was consumed at all by someone below the legal age.
There is no required prison term or monetary penalty for an underage DUI. However, there is a mandatory two-year revocation of the driver’s license.
