DUI/DWI offenders in Port Allegany, PA. are often given the chance to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program as opposed to receiving other consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for such offenses can often be rather serious, which can include jail time and serious fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for first time offenders, the court finds that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Port Allegany, PA. who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other far more severe consequences, a great number will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
