Receiving probation can be a huge relief for many people. It allows them to avoid jail time and remain with their loved ones.

The criminal charges might still weigh on an individual's shoulders, and they must take great care to ensure they adhere to the strict regulations of their probation. If they do not, they could risk having their probation revoked.

When you jump in your car to get to a desired destination, you hope to get there without any major issues along the way. Of course, any number of factors could impede your journey, including road work, accidents or just slow drivers.
