Pennsylvania Dui Lawyers

Second DUI in 3 months in Pennsylvania, is arrest coming?
My Ex has gotten two DUI’s in the past 3 months, and has a court date on 2/2/11. She was never arrested, just taken to the hospital for blood work. The list of charges are:
1 75 § 3802 §§ A1* M DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE
2 75 § 3802 §§ B* M DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE
3 75 § 3714 §§ A S CARELESS DRIVING
4 75 § 4306 §§ A S APPROACHING ON COMING VEHICLE
I know the A refers to general Impairment(.08-.99), and the B stands for High rate of alcohol(.100-.159). She was never arrested as I said, but I would like to know if she will be when she heads to court?
Reason being is we have a son together, and she is doing everything possible to keep him from me. Any leverage I can find before my lawyer and I head to court would only help calm my fears that she will keep him.
