DUI/DWI offenders in Story City frequently find that they are going to have to deal with severe penalties due to their crimes including incarceration and other penalties which may haunt them for years. Instead of of such penalties or to lessen some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or sometimes ordered by the court to take part in a Story City drug and alcohol rehabilitation program to address their problems with alcohol and drug abuse. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehab has worked not only in addressing problems relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system permanently. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot become rehabilitated, having a great effect not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
