Quite a few individuals who are convicted of DUI or DWI in Cayuga find themselves at a crossroads, and can find themselves dealing with serious penalties as a result of their alcohol and drug related offenses or agree to go to proven and effective drug treatment facilities. First time DUI/DWI offenders are prime prospects for such rehab, which has proven effective in dealing with problems with drugs and alcohol and keeping them of the court system for good. In fact, even if the drug rehab alternative is involuntary and court ordered these offenders experience similar if not better successes as someone who takes part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation by their own will. In fact, it is significantly more beneficial for the offender, the court system and today's culture all around to rehabilitate DUI/DWI offenders than it is to penalize them.
