DUI/DWI offenders in Briarwood, Kentucky are often given the chance to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The punishment for such criminal offenses can ordinarily be rather harsh, which can include being locked up in jail and significant fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Briarwood, Kentucky that are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other far more severe penalties, a great number will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
