Biggest problem for him is he's a juvenile and risks losing his license for 1yr. High bac means longer class and maybe caltrans.

If the officer didn't see me drive can he arrest me for DUI?

As you have already learned, yes, the officer can arrest you. However, the more important issue is now, can the prosecutor convict you. One of the three (3) elements of a drunk driving (OUI) charge is Operation, along with public way and .08% alcohol in the blood or impaired operation as the other two elements. The element of Operation is your issue as you describe your situation. There are cases that say that even an admission by the operator, without some corroborating evidence is insufficient to establish Operation beyond a reasonable doubt, the standard in a criminal case. I advise that you call me or another lawyer to discuss your case in more detail. It sounds like you have a very triable case. Make sure you get a good attorney. You only have one chance to get this right.

Ask around your friends, co-workers and family to see if they have someone whose work for them has been effective. You could try online at Avvo. com or elsewhere. Good Luck.
