open container is 100% illegal in cars in FL. HTH.

DUI is being under the influence while in physical control of a motor vehicle. if a cop pulls up on you drinking a beer in your car, and he finds your keys, you're getting arrested for DUI.

if you leave the car to drink? you can still get a DUI if you have the keys with you - I've seen it happen firsthand. And if it's a public parking lot that's also an open container violation, here at least.

Well, drinking A BEER will not result in a person’s BAC being above 0.08 percent, meaning you CANNOT be arrested for DUI. Having an open container? Yes. DUI (or being in physical control of a vehicle)? No.

It won't, but you will blow higher than your actual BAC on a roadside if you're right in the middle of drinking a beer, and if you refuse a breathalyzer you will get arrested for DUI, 100%.

here, at least, open container within 300ft of a public parking lot is illegal, so strike 1, and DUI is defined as being impaired while in control of a motor vehicle (e.g. keys are in the car or near it), so if you're impaired after chugging a beer that's strike 2

if you're too worried about any of these you're kind of a pussy and have no business drinking and driving

Driving with a Open Container? Usually open container only applies to 1 non-driving passenger per open drink. Some states don’t allow any open containers at all. For dwi...that’s all about your scans and field test. Doesn’t matter when you drank it if you’re in control of of the vehicle when they take you into custody.

I've heard the best advice if you get pulled over driving drunk is to immediately turn the car off and then start chugging alcohol in front of the cop, so he can't prove you were driving drunk.
