DUI/DWI clients who're involved in drug and alcohol treatment centers are either there on their own accord, but generally in drug and alcohol rehabilitation due to a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders could be ordered to rehab either in place of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been determined that people who are treated for drug abuse issues instead of other penalties being forced upon them have greater chances of remaining out of the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, so that they can address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances inside their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This could truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their substance abuse should they drive while drunk or high down the road. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
