DUI/DWI offenders in Krakow may very well find themselves burdened with severe punishment as a result of their criminal offenses which could include jail time and other consequences which may afflict them for many years. In lieu of such penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly court ordered to participate in a Krakow drug rehab program to tackle their issues with drugs or alcohol addiction. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug and alcohol rehab has proven effective not just in treating issues concerning drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given this chance become rehabbed, having a beneficial impact not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
