DUI/DWI offenders in Mayer, Arizona are sometimes given the option to participate in a drug treatment center in lieu of punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these kinds of criminal offenses can occasionally be quite harsh, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system finds that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Mayer, Arizona who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process instead of other far more serious punishment, most will stay out of the court system for good.
