DUI/DWI offenders in Hazelton, ID. are sometimes given the option to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for such criminal offenses can often be very extreme, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and various significant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for initial offenders, the judge will decide that treating the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Hazelton, ID. that are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment instead of other far more extreme punishment, many will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
