DUI/DWI offenders in Waco often find that they are dealt serious penalties for their offenses which could include time in jail and other consequences which may afflict them for years. Instead of of such penalties or to reduce some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or possibly court ordered to participate in a Waco drug rehab program to address their issues with drugs or alcohol addiction. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders participate in drug rehabilitation has proven effective not just in treating concerns concerning drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system for good. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders that are given one shot become rehabbed, which has a positive effect not just on the offender but on the court system and society itself.
