DUI/DWI offenders in Clarksville, Arkansas are occasionally given the chance to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment center in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of criminal offenses can occasionally be rather harsh, which can include incarceration and significant fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for initial offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Clarksville, Arkansas who are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment in lieu of other more extreme penalties, many will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
