DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs are either there on their own accord, but most of the time in alcohol and drug rehab due to a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, specifically initial offenders could possibly be ordered to rehab either in lieu of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehab rather than being punished for their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of remaining out from the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug and alcohol rehab facilities DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, in order to address these issues and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which set off their drug or alcohol use. This may certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their drug abuse if they drive while drunk or high in the future. It's a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
