Re: DWI probation
This all depends on your probation officer and the judge presiding over your case.
Some probation officers will revoke you on your first positive drug screen while others will give you a chance to clean up.

I read Mr. Louque's response and must add something.
It also depends on what you do. If you get serious about treatment after this positive test (like getting real substance abuse treatment) the judge will probably be more generous than if you continue abusing substances.
