The purpose of these screening and counseling laws is simple – without some sort of rehabilitative help, those suffering from addictions are more likely to be repeat offenders.  And without first screening each person individually, the right amount of treatment cannot be given.  Without screening or counseling, imposing monetary or even jail sentences are not always enough to deter future misconduct.  Instead, alcohol abuse counseling programs to rehabilitate may be the better option.  That’s not to say you will not have to serve time in jail or pay fines.  Some combination of abuse treatment, house arrest, and minimum mandatory jail time and fines will still be imposed.
