DUI/DWI offenders in Camden are occasionally given the option to take part in a drug treatment center in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these kinds of criminal offenses can often be quite harsh, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Camden who are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more severe punishment, a great number will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
