DUI/DWI offenders in Mohawk often find themselves going to have to deal with extreme penalties as a result of their criminal offenses which could include incarceration and other consequences which can affect them for many years. In lieu of such consequences or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are offered or possibly ordered by the court to receive help in a Mohawk drug and alcohol treatment facility to deal with their issues with alcohol and drug addiction. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehabilitation has worked not just in addressing issues relating to drug addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. Many DUI/DWI offenders that are given this opportunity end up rehabbed, which has a positive influence not just on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society at large.
