DUI/DWI offenders in Vernon, Arizona are occasionally given the option to take advantage of a drug treatment center instead of punishment for their alcohol or drug related crimes. Penalties for these types of offenses can occasionally be quite harsh, which can include incarceration and significant fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Vernon, Arizona who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process instead of other additional serious penalties, most will stay out of the criminal justice system for good.
