DUI/DWI offenders in Hydro, Oklahoma are sometimes given the opportunity to take part in a drug rehab facility in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The punishment for such crimes can often be quite extreme, including incarceration and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for full handling the problem.
