Man extreme DUI .328
Man extreme DUI .328,An Arizona man has been charged with super extreme DUI after recording a blood-alcohol content of .328 percent, officials said.
Scott Jarc, 52, was arrested around 4am Monday by Mohave County officials.
The Topock resident may now be facing four DUI charges but he is lucky to be alive after allegedly getting behind the wheel with enough alcohol in his body to put him in a coma.
In the early hours of Monday morning, officials pulled over Jarc after they spotted him speeding, reported AZCentral.
Deputies say they smelt alcohol as they approached Jarc’s car. He confessed to drinking earlier.
After field sobriety tests Jarc was arrested and tests later revealed his blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to be .328 per cent.
The national legal limit for driving is .08 per cent.
With a 0.30 BAC a person tends to have little comprehension of where they are and ‘may pass out suddenly and be difficult to awaken’, according to alcohol awareness site, BARD.com.
Jarc was charged with DUI, DUI with a blood-alcohol concentration over .08 percent, extreme DUI with a blood-alcohol concentration over .15 percent, and super extreme DUI with a blood-alcohol concentration over .20 percent.
Jarc has since been released from jail, Trish Carter, a Mohave County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman told the MailOnline.
In January he was charged on four misdemeanour charges, including harassing phone calls. None of the January charges were driving related.
