DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug treatment facilities are either there by their own choice, but most of the time in drug and alcohol treatment due to a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could be ordered to rehab either instead of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation as an alternative to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that individuals who are treated for drug abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have greater chances of staying out of the courts than people who find themselves fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug abuse. This may certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be impacted by their substance abuse should they drive while drunk or high in the future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
