DUI/DWI offenders in Little Valley, New York are occasionally given the opportunity to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these types of crimes can occasionally be very extreme, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for first time offenders, the court will decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in treatment is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Little Valley, New York who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other additional serious penalties, most will stay out of the court system for good.
