DUI/DWI offenders in Amston are often given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can ordinarily be very extreme, which can include incarceration and serious fines and various significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for initial offenders, the court may decide that addressing the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Amston that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more severe consequences, many will stay out of the court system for good.
