DUI/DWI offenders in South Carver are occasionally given the chance to participate in a drug rehab program as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The consequences for such crimes can occasionally be very extreme, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for first time offenders, the court will decide that treating the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is will prove more effective in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in South Carver who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious consequences, many will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
