In New York State, what is the charge for driving with a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) between .05 and .07?

The question asks about the charge for driving with a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) between .05 and .07 in New York State.

• a) DWAI (Driving While Ability Impaired): In New York, a BAC between .05% and .07% is typically classified as Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI). This means a person's ability to drive is impaired to some extent, but not necessarily to the level of intoxication required for a DWI charge.
• b) DWI (Driving While Intoxicated): In New York, a BAC of .08% or higher is generally considered Driving While Intoxicated (DWI).
• c) Zero tolerance: The Zero Tolerance Law applies to drivers under 21 years old who have a BAC of .02% or more, but not more than .07%. While the BAC range overlaps, the question refers to "a person" generally, not specifically a minor. For an adult, the charge for this BAC range is DWAI.

Based on New York State vehicle and traffic laws, a BAC between .05% and .07% for an adult driver results in a DWAI charge.

The correct option is a).

$$\boxed{\text{a) DWAI}}$$
