Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Lanark may very well find themselves burdened with serious legal penalties because of their criminal offenses such as time in jail and other penalties which may affect them for years. Instead of of these consequences or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even court ordered to participate in a Lanark drug and alcohol rehab center to address their issues with drug addiction. Ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehabilitation has worked not just in treating issues relating to substance abuse but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot become rehabilitated, which has a positive impact not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the court system and society at large.
