The 20-year-old was arrested in an early morning incident in Newcastle city centre last month.
He was granted bail until Thursday pending the outcome of a blood test and was charged by Northumbria Police to appear before Newcastle Magistrates' Court on November 10.
Another man was charged with drink-driving and driving without insurance after the footballer's distinctive black and white Range Rover was allegedly driven off while Ranger was talking to police.
The car was stopped nearby.
