DUI/DWI offenders in Mason, TN. are often given the opportunity to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility instead of consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The punishment for such offenses can often be quite harsh, including incarceration and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for new offenders, the judge finds that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Mason, TN. that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other additional extreme consequences, a great number will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
