DUI/DWI offenders in Clearfield, Pennsylvania are often given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug treatment program in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The consequences for such crimes can ordinarily be very harsh, which can include incarceration and serious fines and various significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for first time offenders, the court 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 term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Clearfield, Pennsylvania who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other far more severe punishment, many will stay out of the criminal justice system for good.
