DUI/DWI offenders in Macon, MO. are sometimes given the opportunity to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for such criminal offenses can occasionally be very harsh, which can include being locked up in jail and significant fines and even significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for first time offenders, the court will decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Macon, MO. who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process instead of other more extreme punishment, a great number will remain out of the court system permanently.
