DUI/DWI offenders in Oslo frequently find that they are dealt severe legal penalties for their DUI or DWI which could include incarceration and other consequences which may afflict them for years. Instead of of these consequences or to lessen some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly court ordered to receive help in an Oslo drug treatment center to handle their problems with drugs or alcohol abuse. Making someone or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug treatment has proven effective not just in treating problems relating to drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system permanently. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot become rehabilitated, which has a positive impact not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
