Can I get a temporary license until my court date

If you were arrested and charged with DWI within the last 15 days, you need to contact a DWI attorney immediately. The ALR suspension does not take effect until after the expiration of 40 days after the arrest. So, if you are within that window, your privilege to drive is not yet suspended. If you are still inside the 15 day window, your attorney can request an ALR hearing to fight to prevent the suspension. The request will toll the suspension period.

Can I still be charged with a DUI even if I was not in the car?

Yes. Hire a lawyer, though, because it is a difficult case for the state to prove. The question is "control of the motor vehicle."

If they didn't take your blood it's not all that likely they'll be able to file charges against you. If you were on meds, which caused you to lose control of the vehicle, you can be prosecuted for DWI. However, if there's no video, if there's no test, if there's no blood, then there's not much evidence for them to use to go after you. If you get a summons in the mail ordering you to appear in court, then you'll know they filed on you. The other thing that may happen is they may simply issue a warrant for your arrest. But, like I said, if they didn't at least get a blood test, there's not much they can use, and I wouldn't expect a future charge.
