DUI/DWI offenders in Wiergate frequently find themselves burdened with severe punishment as a result of their DUI or DWI such as time in jail and other consequences which may haunt them for years. Instead of of such consequences or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly court ordered to participate in a Wiergate drug and alcohol treatment program to handle their problems with drugs or alcohol addiction. Ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug rehab has worked not only in addressing concerns relating to drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system permanently. Many DUI/DWI offenders that are given this chance become rehabilitated, having a positive impact not just on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society itself.
