Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Lewistown may very well find that they are burdened with extreme punishment due to their offenses including incarceration and other penalties which may affect them for a long time to come. In lieu of these penalties or to lessen some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or sometimes ordered by the court to participate in a Lewistown drug treatment facility to tackle their problems with drugs or alcohol abuse. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug and alcohol rehabilitation has worked not only in treating problems relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given this chance become rehabbed, which has a positive effect not only on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society itself.
