DUI/DWI offenders in Groveland, CA. are sometimes given the option to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehab facility in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The consequences for such offenses can ordinarily be rather severe, and may include incarceration and serious fines and even significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for new offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Groveland, CA. that are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other more serious penalties, most will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
