DUI/DWI offenders in Minto often find that they are burdened with serious penalties because of their offenses which could include time in jail and other consequences which may affect them for a long time to come. Instead of of these consequences or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or even court ordered to participate in a Minto drug treatment facility to handle their issues with alcohol and drug abuse. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug and alcohol treatment has proven effective not just in addressing concerns relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders who are given this opportunity end up rehabbed, which has a positive influence not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society itself.
