DUI/DWI offenders in Okahumpka are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation center in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for these types of crimes can occasionally be rather serious, including jail time and significant fines and even significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for new offenders, the criminal justice system finds that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Okahumpka who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other more severe consequences, a great number will stay away from the court system for good.
