DUI/DWI offenders in Lake Stevens may very well find themselves burdened with extreme punishment as a result of their criminal offenses such as incarceration and other consequences which may afflict them for a long time to come. In lieu of these consequences or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or sometimes ordered by the court to participate in a Lake Stevens drug rehabilitation facility to address their problems with drug abuse. Making someone or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug and alcohol rehabilitation has worked not just in handling problems concerning drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot end up rehabbed, having a great impact not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
