Driving While Ability Impaired By
Drugs (DWAI Drugs)
In New York State, if you are impaired or intoxicated by alcohol, and you drive a car, you could be charged with VTL § 1192(1); VTL § 1192(2); and/or VTL § 1192(3) (DWI and/or DWAI); all three focus on impairment or intoxication by alcohol.

However, in order to be charged with Driving by Ability Impaired By Drugs, you must have ingested a drug specifically mentioned in Public Health Law § 3306, and that drug must have impaired your ability to drive.

Public Health Law § 3306 lists over 14 pages of drugs. Many of the drugs listed are legal substances for many common medical conditions. I caution people not to talk with law enforcement before consulting with an attorney. Your mere mention of the fact that you are taking any of the drugs listed coupled with a police stop could subject you to the charge of driving while ability impaired by drugs.

Public Health Law § 3306, lists the drugs that might subject you to driving while ability impaired by drugs under New York State Law.
