DUI/DWI offenders in Batchtown, Illinois are sometimes given the option to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for such offenses can often be rather serious, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and other significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the judge finds that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Batchtown, Illinois that are fortunate enough to be able to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other more serious consequences, most will stay out of the court system for good.
