OVI While Operating a Commercial Vehicle
CDL limit is .04 (not .08) while operating a commercial vehicle
It is illegal to operate a commercial vehicle in Ohio with a BAC of .04 or higher. If you plead to, or are found guilty of an Ohio DUI, all the regular Ohio DUI/OVI penalties apply, but the legal limit in which you may drive is .04 instead of .08. Refusal to take a chemical test is a first degree misdemeanor, regardless of whether you were charged with an Ohio OVI or not.
