DUI/DWI offenders in Bowling Green, Florida are sometimes given the option to take part in a drug rehab program instead of punishment for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The punishment for these kinds of offenses can occasionally be quite extreme, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for new offenders, the court will decide that treating the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Bowling Green, Florida who are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment in lieu of other far more extreme consequences, many will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
