Individuals who get convicted of DUI/DWI in Coachella, California may very well find themselves burdened with severe penalties because of their offenses which could include jail time and other penalties which can affect them for many years. Instead of of these penalties or to lessen some of them, some DUI/DWI offenders are given the option of or even court ordered to receive help in a Coachella drug and alcohol rehab center to handle their issues with drugs or alcohol addiction. Court ordering or recommending that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug rehab has worked not only in addressing problems regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system permanently. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders who are given this opportunity end up rehabilitated, having a great influence not only on the DUI or DWI offender but on the criminal justice and society at large.
