DUI/DWI offenders in Brave, Pennsylvania are sometimes given the chance to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for these types of offenses can often be rather harsh, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for initial offenders, the judge finds that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Brave, Pennsylvania who are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other more severe punishment, a great number will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
