DUI/DWI offenders in Richwood, OH. are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug rehab center in lieu of punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for these types of offenses can occasionally be very severe, including jail time and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for new offenders, the judge will decide that treating the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Richwood, OH. that are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment instead of other far more serious penalties, most will remain out of the court system for good.
