Am I reading this wrong? If you're under 21, shouldn't any amount of alcohol in your system be illegal?...not top mention driving.

I'm not sure, but I think it varies state to state, IL, for example, is a zero tolerance state which means (I think) that any amount of alcohol in a minors' system results in a revocation of the license.
