Quite a few people who become convicted of DUI or DWI in Milam find themselves at a crossroads, and can find themselves dealing with serious penalties for their alcohol and drug related offenses or agree to go to proven and effective drug treatment centers. First time DUI/DWI offenders are primary candidates for this kind of rehab, which has been very helpful in responding to problems with drug and keeping them of the criminal justice system in the future. In fact, even if the alcohol and drug rehab alternative is not voluntary and is ordered by the court these offenders experience the same successes as individuals who take part in drug and alcohol treatment by their own will. In essence, it is a lot more advantageous for the offender, the court system and today's culture at large to rehabilitate DUI/DWI offenders than it is to penalize them.
