DUI/DWI offenders in Sidney Center are often given the option to participate in a drug treatment program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The consequences for such offenses can occasionally be very severe, and may include being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for first time offenders, the court finds that treating the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Sidney Center who are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment in lieu of other additional extreme consequences, a great number will remain out of the court system for good.
