Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Concordia often find themselves going to have to deal with serious penalties due to their offenses such as incarceration and other penalties which can affect them for years. Instead of of such penalties or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly ordered by the court to take part in a Concordia drug rehabilitation program to deal with their issues with drug abuse. Court ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug treatment has worked not just in handling issues relating to drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot become rehabbed, having a great influence not just on the offender but on the court system and society at large.
