DUI/DWI offenders in Evansville, IN. are sometimes given the option to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation center as opposed to receiving other consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can occasionally be quite extreme, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and other significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for first time offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue.
