It is illegal in Alaska for a person under the age of 21 to consume
alcohol. If you are under 21 and you operate a motor vehicle, aircraft, or
watercraft after consuming alcohol in any amount, you can be arrested
or cited for the offense of minor operating after consuming alcohol. If
you refuse to take a chemical test of your breath, or your breath test
result shows any quantity of alcohol, your driver’s license, privilege to
drive, or your privilege to obtain a license will be revoked by the Division
of Motor Vehicles. This revocation will occur even if the criminal citation
is dismissed, or you are found not guilty in court.
The Administrative revocation periods are:
• 30 days for a first offense
• 60 days if you have been previously revoked for this offense.
• 90 days if you have two previous revocations for this offense.
• 1 year if you have three or more previous revocations for this offense.
