DUI/DWI offenders in Palmyra, Pennsylvania are sometimes given the opportunity to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab facility in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. Penalties for such offenses can often be very harsh, and may include incarceration and serious fines and even significant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Palmyra, Pennsylvania who are lucky enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment instead of other more serious consequences, a great number will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
