DUI/DWI offenders in Ravenna are occasionally given the chance to participate in a drug treatment facility instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for such offenses can occasionally be rather harsh, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system finds that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Ravenna who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other additional extreme penalties, most will stay away from the court system for good.
