DUI/DWI offenders in Letohatchee, AL. are sometimes given the option to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment center in lieu of penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for these kinds of offenses can ordinarily be rather harsh, which can include incarceration and serious fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for new offenders, the judge may decide that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem.
