DUI/DWI offenders in Canton, GA. are often given the option to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program instead of consequences for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can often be quite severe, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for new offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Canton, GA. that are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other far more severe consequences, a great number will stay away from the court system for good.
