DUI/DWI offenders in Drummonds, Tennessee are sometimes given the chance to take part in a drug rehab center in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for these types of crimes can occasionally be quite severe, which can include jail time and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for first time offenders, the judge will decide that treating the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Drummonds, Tennessee that are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more serious penalties, many will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
