Correct answer

  • A0,15 miligramos de alcohol por litro de aire espirado.0.15 milligrams of alcohol per litre of exhaled air.
Explanation

A driver who has just obtained their first driving licence is a novice driver. So during the first two years of the licence, their maximum permitted alcohol level is reduced to 0.3 grams of alcohol per litre of blood or 0.15 mg of alcohol per litre of exhaled air. Do not confuse this with the obligation to display the novice driver sign on the vehicle, which lasts one year, whereas the alcohol level applies for 2 years.
