DUI/DWI offenders in Savannah, NY. are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The consequences for such criminal offenses can ordinarily be rather serious, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and even significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for new offenders, the judge may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue.
