DUI/DWI offenders in Reedy are occasionally given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehab facility instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for these kinds of criminal offenses can often be rather harsh, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and other significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for first time offenders, the criminal justice system finds that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Reedy that are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more serious consequences, many will stay away from the court system for good.
