He has been remanded in custody until his court appearance at the magistrates court at 10am tomorrow. He was arrested in the early hours following the incident on Mulcaster street in St Helier.
The arrest comes two months after he was convicted of drink-driving and banned from driving for 18 months.
The fly-half is said to have been so drunk that his eyes were glazed as he was found to be twice the legal limit in the early hours of 1 June.
Cipriani, who was playing for Sale Sharks at the time, drove his black Mercedes into a taxi and was discovered to have 67 micrograms of alcohol in 100ml of breath.
He was apparently shocked at being over the limit but has now been fined £4,500 and forced to pay £3,120 in costs.
Following the verdict at Westminster Magistrates Court, Judge Riddle said: Im satisfied so that Im sure that the evidential breath test machine was working properly and produced a reading of 67 microgrammes of alcohol, and therefor the verdict is guilty.
