Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Mountain Pass frequently find that they are going to have to deal with extreme penalties due to their criminal offenses such as jail time and other penalties which may afflict them for years. In lieu of such penalties or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are offered or sometimes court ordered to take part in a Mountain Pass drug and alcohol rehabilitation program to address their issues with alcohol and drug abuse. Court ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehab has proven effective not just in treating issues regarding substance abuse but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders who are given this chance end up rehabbed, having a great impact not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
