    Default Random Drops and Alcohol Consumption

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: illinois

    so i was sentenced to court supervision for my first dui and part of this was random drug testing. i don't use any drugs, but do drink. i am not ever driving again, i don't even have a car and this was my friend's car, so i don't need a lecture about drinking and driving.

    my question is, if they drop me for alcohol and i haven't drank in the past 24 hours can they test for that? i read about some urinalysis that they can do where they can detect "metabolites" from alcohol and that can tell them if i have drank in the past few days. i read somewhere that these tests are expensive...do i have these for court supervision? i know that i have to pay 50 bucks a drop, i don't know if that makes a difference...

    any help is greatly appreciated! thanks!

    If you're on probation with a ban on consumption of alcohol, and you are still drinking, you do need a lecture. And you'll probably get one from the probation officer and possibly the judge if you're caught.

    If you can identify the exact test your probation officer uses, it should be possible to tell you what it will detect. Otherwise, it's guesswork.
