DUI/DWI offenders in Westover are sometimes given the chance to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for these types of offenses can occasionally be very severe, which can include being locked up in jail and significant fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for new offenders, the court may decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Westover who are lucky enough to be able to participate in such treatment instead of other more extreme penalties, most will stay out of the court system for good.
