A lower BAC limit of 0.2 g/l. During the 3-year probationary period, Portuguese drivers must maintain a BAC below 0.2 g/l (compared to 0.5 g/l for experienced drivers). Additionally, novice drivers have reduced speed limits: 90 km/h on motorways (instead of 120) and 70 km/h on rural roads (instead of 90). These restrictions help new drivers build experience safely.
