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%.
