Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Westby frequently find that they are going to have to deal with severe penalties due to their DUI or DWI which could include incarceration and other penalties which can haunt them for a long time to come. In lieu of these consequences or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or sometimes court ordered to participate in a Westby drug and alcohol treatment program to deal with their problems with alcohol and drug addiction. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug and alcohol rehab has worked not only in addressing problems relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders that are given this opportunity become rehabbed, which has a great impact not just on the offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
