DUI/DWI offenders in North Concord are occasionally given the opportunity to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program as opposed to receiving other penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for these kinds of criminal offenses can ordinarily be rather extreme, which can include incarceration and substantial fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for initial offenders, the court may decide that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is will prove more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in North Concord who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other additional extreme penalties, a great number will stay out of the criminal justice system for good.
