DUI/DWI offenders in Fullerton are occasionally given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation facility instead of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. Penalties for such offenses can occasionally be quite extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and various significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for first time offenders, the court finds that treating the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Fullerton that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other additional serious penalties, a great number will stay out of the court system for good.
