DUI/DWI offenders in Lansing, MI. are often given the option to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can ordinarily be very serious, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for new offenders, the court finds that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Lansing, MI. who are lucky enough to be able to take part in this rehab process instead of other more severe penalties, many will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
