Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Oneida often find that they are burdened with serious legal penalties for their criminal offenses such as jail time and other penalties which can affect them for years. Instead of of such penalties or to lessen some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or even court ordered to receive help in an Oneida drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to deal with their problems with alcohol and drug abuse. Making someone or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug and alcohol rehabilitation has worked not only in addressing problems regarding drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot end up rehabbed, having a beneficial effect not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the court system and society at large.
