DUI/DWI offenders in Matoaka, West Virginia are often given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The punishment for such offenses can ordinarily be quite severe, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for new offenders, the court will decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Matoaka, West Virginia who are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process instead of other far more serious consequences, most will remain out of the court system for good.
