Mid Range
What is Low Range PCA?
Low Range PCA is
categorized by the Law as having an alcohol level between 0.05 and 0.79.
Being charged with a Low
Range PCA is still regarded as a serious matter, even though it is the lowest
range you can be charged with. If you are convicted by the court, there are
penalties including losing your licence. There are important factors that
influence the magistrate who is sentencing you. One of these is whether you
have been convicted for any level of a PCA offence in the previous 5 years.
What can happen to me if
I am found Guilty of a Low Range PCA?
There are a number of
penalties the Magistrate hearing your matter may impose on you. These include:
§ A fine up to $1,100 for
a first offence, or up to $2,200 for a second or subsequent offence.
§ An automatic
disqualification of your licence for 6 months which can be reduced by the
Magistrate to a period to a minimum of 3 months, if it is a first time offence.
For a second or subsequent offence, there is an automatic disqualification of
12 months; however, a Magistrate has the discretion to reduce this period to a
minimum of 3 months.
