DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug and alcohol rehab centers are either there by their own choice, but more often than not in alcohol and drug treatment due to a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders might be ordered to treatment either instead of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehabilitation as opposed to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been proven that individuals who are treated for drug abuse issues rather than other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of staying out of the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug rehab facilities DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances inside their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This can certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be impacted by their drug or alcohol use when they drive while drunk or high in the future. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
