DUI/DWI offenders in Deerfield Beach, Florida are occasionally given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The punishment for these types of crimes can often be quite serious, and may include incarceration and serious fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Deerfield Beach, Florida that are lucky enough to be able to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other far more extreme consequences, many will remain out of the court system permanently.
