DUI/DWI offenders in Grandview are occasionally given the option to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The punishment for such offenses can often be very extreme, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for initial offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is a better decision in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Grandview that are lucky enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more serious punishment, a great number will remain away from the court system permanently.
