DUI/DWI offenders in Blawenburg are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug rehabilitation program as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The punishment for such criminal offenses can occasionally be quite harsh, which can include incarceration and significant fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for first time offenders, the court finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Blawenburg who are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process instead of other additional serious penalties, many will stay out of the criminal justice system permanently.
