DUI/DWI offenders in Helmville are often given the option to take part in a drug treatment center as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for these types of offenses can ordinarily be quite serious, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for first time offenders, the court will decide that treating the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Helmville who are lucky enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment instead of other more serious punishment, most will stay away from the court system for good.
