DUI/DWI offenders in Zuni may very well find themselves burdened with extreme legal penalties because of their DUI or DWI such as time in jail and other penalties which may haunt them for a long time to come. In lieu of these penalties or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly court ordered to participate in a Zuni drug treatment program to address their problems with drug addiction. Ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation has worked not only in handling issues regarding substance abuse but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. A lot of DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot end up rehabilitated, which has a beneficial influence not just on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society at large.
