DUI/DWI offenders in Corydon are often given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug rehab center in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The punishment for such crimes can ordinarily be rather severe, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and even significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for new offenders, the judge finds that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Corydon who are fortunate enough to be able to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more severe punishment, a great number will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
