DUI/DWI offenders in Miami Springs are often given the option to participate in a drug treatment program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The consequences for these types of offenses can ordinarily be quite severe, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for new offenders, the judge will decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Miami Springs who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other additional extreme penalties, many will remain out of the court system for good.
