DUI/DWI offenders in Chanhassen, Minnesota are occasionally given the option to take advantage of a drug and alcohol treatment program in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The consequences for these types of crimes can often be rather extreme, which can include incarceration and serious fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for initial offenders, the court may decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Chanhassen, Minnesota who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment instead of other additional extreme punishment, a great number will remain out of the court system permanently.
