People in Sutter Creek with DUI/DWI are often court ordered to attend an alcohol or drug rehab program, most often when they are first time offenders and in lieu of other stiff justice actions. Even though being convicted of a DUI/DWI in Sutter Creek often comes with large fines and even jail time in some cases, the criminal justice system is at times more inclined to help rehabilitate the particular person instead of penalizing them. Allowing people with DUI/DWI to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program as an alternative to other methods of justice has shown to be successful in keeping individuals in Sutter Creek out of the criminal justice system because of DUI/DWI in the future.
