The Sheriff's Department tells TMZ Barron Hilton registered at nearly twice the legal limit, even for people over 21.
Spokesman Steve Whitmore tells us Barron blew a .14 blood alcohol reading.
In California, .08 is considered legally intoxicated for drivers over 21. If they're under 21 -- Barron is 18 -- any blood alcohol level is considered legally drunk.
In addition to the misdemeanor DUI charge, Hilton was also charged with carrying a false California driver's license. Whether the fake ID said he was over 21 or not is unknown at this time. His bail is set at $20,000. Chump change!

.14 is a pretty high BAC for an 18 year old kid who isn't a seasoned drinker and probably hasn't been drinking for that long. I've known plenty of long time heavy drinkers who would of had a .14 and you would have never of even known they had been drinking. Point is: this kid must have been absolutely wasted. And of course, never drink and drive if you have ANY alcohol in your system.

Do they do a test for drugs like cocaine as well? Because usually alcohol that early in the am means an all-night party--often including drugs. Also, why didn't his parents object to his being out all night at 18. Mine would have. If he lives on his own,my guess is that he is not mature enpoght to do so. His parents probably foolishly just gave him a bunch of money for a house or appartment. The late teens and early twenties should be about learning to take of yourself and also for, gasp, college! Don't these people believ in education?
