Many individuals who become convicted of DUI or DWI in Dalton, GA. find themselves at a crossroads, and can find themselves dealing with serious penalties for their drug and alcohol related offenses or agree to go to effective drug rehab programs. First time DUI/DWI criminal justice clients are prime candidates for this kind of rehab, which has proven effective in addressing issues with drug and ensuring they stay out of the criminal justice system in the future. To be more exact, even if the drug and alcohol rehabilitation alternative is involuntary and court ordered these offenders experience similar if not better successes as individuals who take part in alcohol and drug rehabilitation voluntarily. In essence, it is a lot more advantageous for the client, the court system and society all around to rehabilitate DUI/DWI offenders than it is to penalize them.
