Police said in a news release they stopped Ho's car and determined he was operating under the influence of drugs.
A search of his car produced various pills, including several hundred believed to be hydrocodone, escitalopram, an anti-anxiety drug, and carisoprodol, a muscle relaxant, police said.
Ho was arrested and his car was impounded.
He is charged with three counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance, two counts of driving while his ability was impaired, failure to stay in a single lane and impeding traffic.
He was scheduled to be arraigned Thursday at First District Court in Hempstead.
