...but am concerned about the possible flight problems I may have? Obviously, I cannot run from my problems forever; I am just concerned about the possible outcomes of flying.

Generally speaking, when you fly within the US there is no warrant check done (to my knowledge). However, you should...

I did not take the breathalyzer. I did take one at the site and it was a 0.8.

Although your offenses were 27 and 19 years ago, Massachusetts has a "lifetime lookback" law. Most District Attorney's...

Officer demanded that I get out of my car and take the field sobriety test. I was never given an option (as I thought was required?). I was afraid that if I said no, I'd be spending a lot of time in jail. Also, he seemed young and likely inexperienced (no older than 26 most likely). I failed and was arrested regardless. He didn't want to hear about my ankle injuries, which were in a lot of pain due to the tests, and that combined with the fact that I was tired (hadn't slept in almost 24 hours) and EXTREMELY nervous (to which he inquired, "Are you always this nervous?" DUH!!), the grueling field test was failed miserably.

You are not required to take a sobriety test; refusal will trigger an automatic suspension of your license. You are not...

What chance do I have winning an OIU case in MA when I was not intoxicated or under the influence of Rx drugs I was prescribed by a doctor? I admit I was driving over the speed limit at 3:30am (and I hadn't slept in 24 hours, so I was tired), and the officer who pulled me over demanded I take a field sobriety test (instead of giving me the option which I thought he had to do?). I failed the 30 second "toe point" and heel-to-heel walk b/c of my bad ankles (he didn't want to hear about it). I am on Adderall and Klonopin, and the last pill I took was an Adderall at apx 3:00pm that afternoon. I wasn't OUI. Additionally, I offered to take a urine, blood and breath test twice and was ignored. So they don't have that as evidence and they didn't confiscate my meds. Do I have a strong case?

It sounds like you definitely have some strong arguments for the defense of OUI. Of course, the police report will read...

I am on probation with random drug & alcohol screening. My color (the method of randomization) hasn't been called yet, so I haven't gone for my first screening yet. I was not informed that this would be part of the test panel. I have been doing some research and have found that I could test positive for incidental alcohol contact- hand sanitizer, cold medicine, gasoline, etc. I'm concerned that if this is sprung on me I won't pass. Would my probation officer have to inform me of the test, as well as advise me to stay away from incidental exposure or could this test be sprung on me? What is my recourse if I test positive from incidental exposure?

You can be tested for alcohol if your probation contract says you cannot consume alcohol. Hand sanitizer and cold...
