DUI/DWI offenders in Swainsboro may very well find themselves burdened with extreme punishment because of their DUI or DWI which could include jail time and other penalties which may haunt them for many years. In lieu of these penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or sometimes court ordered to participate in a Swainsboro drug and alcohol treatment center to address their problems with drugs or alcohol addiction. Ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders receive treatment in drug and alcohol rehab has worked not just in treating concerns relating to substance abuse but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system permanently. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders that are given this chance end up rehabilitated, having a beneficial influence not just on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society itself.
