DUI/DWI offenders in North Spring, WV. are occasionally given the opportunity to take part in a drug rehabilitation program in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for these types of crimes can often be very harsh, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for first time offenders, the judge may decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long term for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in North Spring, WV. who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other more extreme consequences, a great number will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
