What is the legal blood alcohol content limit for carrying a firearm in Vermont?

  1. 0.08%

  2. There is no specified limit

  3. 0.05%

  4. 0.00%

The correct answer is: 0.00%

In Vermont, it is illegal to carry a firearm while under the influence of alcohol, regardless of the blood alcohol content (BAC) level. Even if a person's BAC is below 0.08%, which is the legal limit for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated in most states, it is still considered a violation of the law to possess a firearm. This is why D, which indicates a BAC limit of 0.00%, is the correct answer. Option A, 0.08%, may seem like a plausible answer given the similarity to DUI laws, but it does not apply to carrying a firearm. Option B, stating that there is no specified limit, is incorrect because as previously stated, any level of alcohol in the system while carrying a firearm is prohibited. Option C, 0.05%, is also incorrect as it still allows for a small amount of alcohol in the system, which is not permitted in this scenario. Therefore, it is essential to be aware of and follow the specific laws and regulations in each state to avoid any potential legal consequences.
