Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Bay City often find that they are burdened with severe penalties for their crimes including incarceration and other penalties which can haunt them for many years. In lieu of these consequences or to reduce some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even ordered by the court to take part in a Bay City drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility to tackle their problems with alcohol and drug addiction. Court ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation has worked not just in handling issues regarding drug or alcohol addiction but also in keeping them away from the criminal justice system permanently. Many DUI/DWI offenders who are given one shot become rehabilitated, which has a beneficial impact not only on the offender but on the criminal justice and society itself.
