DUI/DWI offenders in Galesburg, Michigan are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these kinds of criminal offenses can occasionally be quite severe, and may include jail time and serious fines and various significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for new offenders, the court may decide that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the issue.
