Dont believe everything that people tell you-You need to sit down and speak with an attorney or speak with your OUI attorney as to your driving privileges as there is not enough info here to determine the answer.

Massachusetts only has the authority to revoke your right to drive in Massachusetts. What generally happens however (and what is supposed to happen under federal law) is that the states inform all other states about what they have done to revoke your license, and your right to drive will be revoked in all states as a result of what happened in Massachusetts. I don't know for sure, but I would be surprised to find out that "Maine and Massachusetts don't talk to each other" about these things. Therefore, I would expect Maine to find out, and that they will revoke your driver's license when they do.
