DUI/DWI offenders in Pine Grove are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for these types of criminal offenses can ordinarily be rather extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for new offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Pine Grove that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process instead of other more severe penalties, many will remain away from the court system permanently.
