DUI/DWI offenders in Plymouth are sometimes given the option to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center as opposed to receiving other penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for such crimes can occasionally be rather severe, and may include incarceration and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for new offenders, the court finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Plymouth who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious penalties, most will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
