DUI/DWI offenders in Nora are sometimes given the option to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for such crimes can ordinarily be quite severe, and may include jail time and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for new offenders, the court finds that treating the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Nora that are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other far more serious punishment, most will stay away from the court system permanently.
