DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug treatment programs are either there by their own choice, but most of the time in drug rehabilitation due to a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could possibly be required to go to rehabilitation either in place of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from treatment instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that those who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have greater odds of staying out of the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse alcohol and drugs, so that they can address these issues and find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which prompt their drug abuse. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their drug abuse whenever they drive while intoxicated in the foreseeable future. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
