DUI/DWI offenders in Burt are occasionally given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for such offenses can occasionally be very severe, including incarceration and significant fines and other significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for initial offenders, the court will decide that addressing the issues 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 Burt that are lucky enough to be able to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more severe consequences, most will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
