Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Aripeka frequently find that they are going to have to deal with severe legal penalties for their DUI or DWI including jail time and other penalties which may affect them for a long time to come. In lieu of such penalties or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or sometimes court ordered to participate in an Aripeka drug and alcohol rehab program to tackle their problems with drugs or alcohol addiction. Making someone or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug rehabilitation has proven effective not just in handling concerns regarding drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders that are given this opportunity end up rehabbed, having a positive effect not just on the offender but on the criminal justice and society itself.
