DUI/DWI clients that are involved in drug and alcohol treatment facilities are either there by their own choice, but more often than not in drug and alcohol rehab due to a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders may be required to go to treatment either in place of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehab 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 or alcohol use issues instead of other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of remaining out of the court system than those who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug and alcohol rehab programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, so that they can address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which set off their substance abuse. This will certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their substance abuse when they drive while intoxicated in the future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
