DUI/DWI offenders in Phillipsville, California are sometimes given the option to participate in a drug rehab center as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these types of criminal offenses can ordinarily be quite extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and various significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for new offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Phillipsville who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other additional severe punishment, many will remain away from the court system permanently.
