DUI/DWI offenders in Benoit are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug rehab center in lieu of punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can ordinarily be quite extreme, including incarceration and serious fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for first time offenders, the judge may decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Benoit that are lucky enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process instead of other additional serious punishment, a great number will stay away from the court system for good.
