DUI/DWI offenders in Davenport are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility instead of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these types of offenses can occasionally be quite serious, including jail time and significant fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for initial offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is will prove more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Davenport that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other more severe consequences, many will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
