DUI/DWI offenders in Owings Mills frequently find that they are going to have to deal with extreme penalties for their criminal offenses which could include jail time and other consequences which can affect them for many years. In lieu of such penalties or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly ordered by the court to participate in an Owings Mills drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to tackle their problems with alcohol and drug abuse. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehab has proven effective not just in addressing issues relating to drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. Many DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot become rehabbed, having a beneficial impact not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the court system and society at large.
