What if a minor takes the breath test and it shows .08 at the time of driving?

Texas law states that if a minor has any detectable amount of alcohol in his system, the minor's driving privileges will be automatically suspended for not less than 60 days, even when the minor takes a breath test and the result shows an alcohol concentration less than .08 at the time of driving. Furthermore, if the test result confirms the presence of alcohol or any other drug in the minor's system, that evidence will be used against the minor a subsequent criminal prosecution for DWI or DUI.
