DUI/DWI offenders in Queen Creek, Arizona are occasionally given the option to take advantage of a drug and alcohol treatment program as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these types of criminal offenses can occasionally be rather harsh, including jail time and significant fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for first time offenders, the judge may decide that addressing the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is will prove more effective in the long run for full handling the issue.
