Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Lunenburg often find themselves burdened with severe legal penalties because of their offenses such as incarceration and other penalties which can haunt them for a long time to come. Instead of of these penalties or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly ordered by the court to participate in a Lunenburg drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to deal with their issues with alcohol and drug abuse. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehab has worked not just in treating issues regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders that are given this opportunity become rehabbed, having a great impact not only on the offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
