DUI/DWI offenders in Red Lick are occasionally given the option to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment program in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The consequences for such offenses can often be very extreme, which can include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for new offenders, the court finds that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Red Lick who are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment instead of other far more serious punishment, most will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
