DUI/DWI offenders in Thatcher, Arizona are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment facility as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The consequences for these types of criminal offenses can ordinarily be rather extreme, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for initial offenders, the court may decide that treating the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Thatcher, Arizona that are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other far more extreme consequences, a great number will stay out of the court system for good.
