DUI/DWI offenders in Dana are often given the chance to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these types of criminal offenses can often be quite extreme, and may include incarceration and serious fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for first time offenders, the court may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Dana who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more extreme punishment, most will stay away from the court system for good.
