| Fine | Driver's License | |
| First Offense | $300 maximum | 90 days suspension |
| Second Offense | $500 maximum | One year suspension |
Also, under Pennsylvania's Zero Tolerance Law, it is considered drunk driving when a person under 21 has any measurable trace of alcohol in his or her system while operating a motor vehicle.
