Denver’s court system has implemented a new idea for reducing the number of DUI’s, and subsequently DUI Accidents in Denver. Sobriety court is an opt-in option for repeat offenders. They can choose sobriety court, rather than jail time. DUI offenders can choose to participate in a 18 – 24 month program that focuses on treating addiction, and requires frequent meetings with the judge and frequent, if not daily, Blood Alcohol screenings.
