DUI/DWI offenders in Scott Air Force Base, Illinois are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehab facility as opposed to receiving other punishment for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for these types of offenses can occasionally be rather extreme, and may include jail time and significant fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for new offenders, the court will decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Scott Air Force Base, Illinois that are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment in lieu of other far more severe penalties, most will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
