DUI/DWI offenders in Whitesboro are often given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment facility as opposed to receiving other punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The consequences for these types of offenses can often be rather severe, and may include incarceration and significant fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the court finds that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Whitesboro who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process instead of other far more severe penalties, most will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
