DUI/DWI offenders in New Carlisle, Indiana are often given the chance to take advantage of a drug and alcohol treatment program instead of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for such offenses can ordinarily be quite harsh, and may include incarceration and significant fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for initial offenders, the court will decide that treating the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in New Carlisle, Indiana who are lucky enough to be permitted to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other more serious punishment, many will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
