DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug and alcohol treatment centers are either there by their own choice, but generally in drug and alcohol treatment as part of a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either in lieu of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from treatment instead of being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been established that those who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of staying out of the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug abuse. This may truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their substance abuse whenever they drive while under the influence later on. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
