DUI/DWI offenders in Lone Pine, CA. are often given the opportunity to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The consequences for these types of crimes can often be very severe, and may include jail time and significant fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for initial offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Lone Pine, California who are fortunate enough to be able to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious punishment, many will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
