DUI/DWI offenders in Sandy Hook, VA. are sometimes given the opportunity to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for such criminal offenses can occasionally be rather serious, including incarceration and significant fines and various significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for new offenders, the court may decide that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Sandy Hook, VA. who are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more serious punishment, many will stay out of the court system for good.
