DUI/DWI offenders in Mears may very well find themselves dealt serious legal penalties as a result of their criminal offenses including incarceration and other penalties which may haunt them for many years. Instead of of these consequences or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even court ordered to participate in a Mears drug rehab program to tackle their problems with drug addiction. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug treatment has worked not only in handling concerns regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot end up rehabilitated, having a positive effect not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the court system and society at large.
