Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Cottageville may very well find that they are going to have to deal with extreme penalties because of their crimes which could include incarceration and other penalties which can afflict them for a long time to come. Instead of of these penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly court ordered to participate in a Cottageville drug and alcohol rehabilitation program to address their problems with drugs or alcohol addiction. Ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug and alcohol rehab has proven effective not just in addressing concerns regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given this opportunity end up rehabbed, having a great effect not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
