DUI/DWI offenders in Chilcoot are often given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The punishment for these types of offenses can occasionally be very extreme, including incarceration and substantial fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for initial offenders, the court will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Chilcoot that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other more severe penalties, a great number will stay away from the court system for good.
