DUI/DWI offenders in Dozier, Alabama are occasionally given the chance to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. Penalties for these types of criminal offenses can occasionally be rather extreme, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and various significant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for new offenders, the judge finds that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Dozier, Alabama who are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other additional severe punishment, many will remain away from the court system permanently.
