DUI/DWI offenders in Teachey, NC. are often given the option to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehab program in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these kinds of offenses can occasionally be very harsh, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for new offenders, the court may decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Teachey, NC. who are lucky enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process instead of other additional severe penalties, a great number will stay out of the criminal justice system permanently.
