Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Kingston often find themselves burdened with extreme legal penalties because of their crimes including time in jail and other penalties which can afflict them for a long time to come. Instead of of such penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly court ordered to take part in a Kingston drug and alcohol treatment facility to tackle their problems with alcohol and drug abuse. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug rehab has proven effective not just in addressing problems relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot become rehabilitated, having a great influence not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the court system and society at large.
