DUI/DWI offenders in Skyforest, California are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug treatment program instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of criminal offenses can often be rather serious, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for initial offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Skyforest that are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more serious punishment, many will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
