DUI/DWI offenders in New Waterford frequently find themselves going to have to deal with severe legal penalties due to their offenses which could include jail time and other penalties which may affect them for a long time to come. Instead of of such penalties or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even court ordered to receive help in a New Waterford drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to address their problems with alcohol and drug addiction. Ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehabilitation has proven effective not just in treating problems regarding drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given this opportunity become rehabilitated, which has a positive impact not only on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society at large.
