Answer:

If the driver agrees to therapy and the judge determines that it would be beneficial, the judge may choose to drop the charges during a probationary period. The judge can still impose up to 30 hours of community service, and the accused will still be compelled to pay any penalties that would typically be imposed for an OUI conviction.

The judge will mandate the completion of a driving alcohol education programme as well as potential drug and alcohol treatment as terms of probation. For 45 to 90 days, the driver's licence will be suspended. A temporary hardship licence is offered at this time. Drivers under 21 and those whose blood alcohol content (BAC) is over.20% may be subject to additional licencing and treatment requirements.
