Merrillville, IN. - DUI/DWI OffendersDrinking and driving, or driving while under the influence are serious offenses not to be taken lightly. While each state has its own way of handling DUI/DWI offenders, there are some generalities that can be expected. Depending on the severity of the driver's intoxication and how strict the state laws are, they may have to serve a jail sentence for their offense. Once this is accomplished they will most likely have further retribution to do in order to drive a vehicle again. Many states require the person to undergo counseling and/or therapy to aid in their recovery process. Often these counseling sessions are held in a group setting by either a substance abuse counselor or a member of Alcoholics Anonymous. The state will determine a set number of counseling hours that the DUI/DWI offender will need to attend.
