DUI/DWI offenders in Byron, California are often given the chance to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The punishment for these types of criminal offenses can occasionally be very serious, including incarceration and significant fines and other significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for initial offenders, the criminal justice system finds that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Byron, California that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other additional extreme punishment, a great number will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
