DUI/DWI offenders in Lancaster, OH. are occasionally given the opportunity to take part in a drug treatment center in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for these types of crimes can often be quite harsh, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and other significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for initial offenders, the court may decide that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Lancaster, OH. who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other far more extreme punishment, a great number will stay out of the court system for good.
