Answered by GPT-4o mini
Option 5, "DUI" (Driving Under the Influence), is correct because it is the term commonly used to refer to being charged with operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs, typically at a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher.

Option 1, "DWI" (Driving While Intoxicated), is another term that is used in some jurisdictions, but it often depends on state laws. In some places, DWI can refer specifically to alcohol impairment, while DUI may encompass both alcohol and drugs. The terminology can vary significantly depending on local laws.

In summary, while both terms may be applicable, "DUI" is frequently used in the context you provided, which is why it is considered the correct choice in this instance.
