DUI/DWI offenders in Fairmount, North Dakota are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center instead of consequences for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The punishment for these types of crimes can occasionally be very serious, and may include incarceration and serious fines and various significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for new offenders, the judge finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Fairmount, North Dakota that are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other far more serious penalties, a great number will stay out of the criminal justice system for good.
