DUI/DWI offenders in Iva are often given the option to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for such criminal offenses can occasionally be quite severe, including incarceration and serious fines and various significant 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 court will decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Iva who are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other more serious punishment, many will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
