DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities are either there on their own accord, but generally in drug rehabilitation as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly be required to go to rehabilitation either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab rather than being punished for their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been verified that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of remaining out of the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug rehabilitation centers DUI/DWI clients can establish 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 trigger their substance abuse. This can truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their drug or alcohol use whenever they drive while drunk or high down the road. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
