If you have recently been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance it is best that you immediately consult with an experienced criminal defense attorney who does primary driving under the influnce matters about your situation and your desire to retain your driver's license without any suspension.
As you are aware, many states impose by statute automatic license suspensions of a person's driving privileges simply as a result of a driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance arrest.
Good luck.
