DUI/DWI offenders in Maysville are often given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility as opposed to receiving other consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these types of offenses can occasionally be very serious, including jail time and substantial fines and even significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for first time offenders, the court will decide that treating the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Maysville that are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more extreme penalties, most will remain out of the court system for good.
