DUI/DWI offenders in Humble, Texas are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these kinds of offenses can occasionally be rather serious, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for new offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Humble, Texas that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment in lieu of other far more extreme consequences, many will stay away from the criminal justice system permanently.
