If you do not find the answer to your question, please email or call us at 518-457-2667. What is "DWI"? What are the penalties for DWI or DWAI? What is "Implied Consent"? What is a "BAC"? What does Prompt Suspension" mean? What is the Zero Tolerance Law? What is the new .08% minimum per se law? What is "DWI"? DWI is an acronym for driving while intoxicated. A similar acronym, DUI, is used in other states which stands for driving under the influence, and yet another acronym, DWAI, may be encountered which signifies driving while ability impaired. Under section 1192 of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law (VTL), the prohibitions against a motorist's consumption of alcohol or drugs include: Driving while ability impaired: "No person shall operate a motor vehicle while the person's ability to operate such motor vehicle is impaired by the consumption of alcohol" (VTL §1192[1]). A first violation of this DWAI provision is a traffic violation. Driving while intoxicated; per se: "No person shall operate a motor vehicle while such person has .08 of one per centum or more by weight of alcohol in the person's blood as shown by chemical analysis of such person's blood, breath, urine or saliva. . . ." (VTL §1192[2]). A first violation of this DWI provision is a misdemeanor. Driving while intoxicated: "No person shall operate a motor vehicle while in an intoxicated condition." (VTL §1192[3]). A first violation of this DWI provision is a misdemeanor. Driving while ability impaired by drugs: "No person shall operate a motor vehicle while the person's ability to operate such a motor vehicle is impaired by the use of a drug. . . ." (VTL §1192[4]). A first violation of this DWAI provision is a misdemeanor. Other provisions of VTL §1192 prohibit the operation of certain commercial vehicles at stated levels of alcohol concentration percentages lower than those specified in VTL §1192(2). Top What are the penalties for DWI or DWAI? All alleged violations of section 1192 of the VTL are prosecuted as criminal offenses and conviction subjects the motorist to specified penalties that vary according to (a) the seriousness level of the particular offense, which ranges from a traffic infraction to a class D felony, and (b) the motorist's record of certain prior driving-related convictions. Upon conviction, the court must always impose a fine (the lowest of which for the least serious offense is presently $355.00) and may, in addition, impose a period of incarceration (the longest of which for the most serious DWI offense is presently 7 years of imprisonment at a State correctional facility). In addition, a violation of any provision of section 1192 of the VTL or a refusal to submit to a properly requested chemical test automatically initiates separate administrative proceedings before the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles where determinations of a violation or a refusal result in a mandatory suspension or revocation of a motorist's driving privileges for stated periods of time. Lastly, apart from these court and administrative proceedings, a motorist's record of DWI or DWAI may also trigger substantially higher automotive insurance premiums. Top What is "Implied Consent"? Under circumstances set out in VTL §1194, a police officer is authorized to request a motorist to submit to a chemical test and the law provides that "[a]ny person who operates a motor vehicle in this state shall be deemed to have given consent to a chemical test of one or more of the following: breath, blood, urine, or saliva, for the purpose of determining the alcoholic and/or drug content of the blood. . . ." When an authorized request is made, a motorist is then said to have given his or her "implied consent" to submit to the chemical test. A refusal to submit to a test after a proper request carries mandatory administrative consequences involving the loss of driving privileges and a civil fine (regardless of the outcome of any related DWI or DWAI charges in court) and in the event of such a refusal the police officer or District Attorney may apply to a court asking it for an order to compel the motorist to submit to a chemical test Top What is a "BAC"? A BAC is an acronym standing for Blood Alcohol Content; the amount of alcohol in a person's body measured by the weight of the alcohol in a certain amount of blood. Breath analysis is the primary method most frequently used statewide by law enforcement agencies to determine BAC, but a direct analysis of blood for this purpose is also a common practice. The first practical breath analysis device was designed in the 1930s by Dr. Rolla Harger of the Indiana University School of Medicine and was known as the Harger Drunkometer. This device was widely used for many years until the Breathalyzer, which was designed by Dr. Robert Borkenstein in 1954, replaced it. The Breathalyzer uses the relationship between a person's alveolar (deep lung) air and blood . This system collects a fixed volume of alveolar air and passes it through an alcohol- sensitive chemical reagent. Alcohol in the sample produces a color change in the reagent which is measured by a photometric system and yields a resulting BAC. While the Breathalyzer has been and continues to provide an accurate BAC, technology advancements have produced new and improved methods of analyzing breath to determine BAC. All of the newer evidential breath analysis devices employ infrared technology to measure alcohol in the person's blood by calculating the amount of infrared energy absorbed by the alcohol contained in the person's breath sample. These newer instruments are microprocessor-based, enabling faster, and easier operation, as well as having the ability to record and print breath test results. Top What does Prompt Suspension" mean? A court is obliged to suspend the license, pending prosecution, of a motorist who has been charged with a DWI violation of VTL §1192(2) or 1192(3) at arraignment (initial court appearance) if: The results of a chemical test show that the defendant had a BAC level of .08% or more; and The court finds reasonable cause to believe that the defendant operated the motor vehicle while having a BAC level of at least .08%; and The court finds that the accusatory instrument (formal statement of charges) is sufficient on its face. Top What is the Zero Tolerance Law? It is unlawful, under VTL §1192-a for a person under the age of 21 years to operate a motor vehicle after having consumed alcohol as shown by a BAC (blood alcohol content) level of .02% or more. While drivers under 21 remain fully subject to all of the DWI and DWAI charges and penalties for violating VTL §1192, a violation of VTL § 1192-a is not a criminal offense and subsequent findings and penalties for violation are administrative in nature. These penalties can consist of a civil fine and a license suspension or revocation action. Top What is the new .08% minimum per se law? In December, 2002, Governor George Pataki signed into law a measure which took effect on July 1, 2003, under which it is a DWI violation of VTL § 1192(2) for a person to operate a motor vehicle while such person has .08 per centum or more by weight of alcohol in such person's blood. Laboratory and field research shows that the vast majority of drivers, even experienced drivers are significantly compromised at .08% BAC with regard to critical driving tasks such as braking, steering, lane changing, judgment and divided attention. Research also suggests that the most critical aspect of diminished performance is reduction in the ability to handle several tasks at once - the precise skill needed to safely operate a motor vehicle. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety research indicates that the relative risk of being killed in a single vehicle crash for drivers with BACs between .05% and .09% is 11 times that of drivers free of alcohol.
