DUI/DWI offenders in Middlebury, Indiana are occasionally given the chance to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The consequences for such crimes can occasionally be rather serious, which can include jail time and significant fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for initial offenders, the court finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Middlebury, Indiana that are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other more severe punishment, many will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
