DUI/DWI offenders in Monte Rio may very well find that they are burdened with severe legal penalties for their crimes which could include incarceration and other consequences which may haunt them for a long time to come. In lieu of these penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly court ordered to participate in a Monte Rio drug and alcohol rehabilitation program to tackle their issues with alcohol and drug addiction. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug treatment has worked not only in treating concerns regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders who are given this chance end up rehabbed, which has a beneficial influence not just on the individual in treatment but on the criminal justice and society at large.
