Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Maynard often find that they are burdened with serious punishment for their crimes which could include time in jail and other penalties which can afflict them for a long time to come. Instead of of these penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even court ordered to take part in a Maynard drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to tackle their problems with drugs or alcohol abuse. Court ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug treatment has worked not just in treating problems relating to substance abuse but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot become rehabilitated, having a great influence not only on the individual in treatment but on the criminal justice and society at large.
