DUI/DWI offenders in Comanche are sometimes given the option to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab center as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The punishment for these types of criminal offenses can often be quite severe, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for new offenders, the court will decide that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Comanche who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment in lieu of other additional extreme penalties, many will stay away from the court system permanently.
