DUI/DWI offenders in Apple Valley, CA. are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of crimes can ordinarily be very extreme, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for new offenders, the court finds that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Apple Valley, CA. that are fortunate enough to be able to take part in such treatment instead of other additional severe consequences, many will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
