DUI/DWI offenders in Washington, IN. are sometimes given the opportunity to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility as opposed to receiving other consequences for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The consequences for such offenses can occasionally be very harsh, and may include incarceration and significant fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI.
