DUI/DWI offenders in Camden are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of a drug treatment program instead of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for these kinds of criminal offenses can often be quite serious, which can include incarceration and substantial fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Camden that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other additional extreme punishment, a great number will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
