DUI/DWI offenders in Indianola, Iowa are often given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehab facility in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The consequences for these types of offenses can often be quite extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for new offenders, the court may decide that addressing the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Indianola, Iowa that are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process instead of other more extreme penalties, many will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
