DUI/DWI offenders in Newmarket are often given the option to take part in a drug treatment program instead of penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. Penalties for such offenses can occasionally be very severe, which can include being locked up in jail and significant fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the court will decide that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is will prove more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Newmarket that are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious punishment, many will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
