DUI/DWI clients who're involved in alcohol and drug rehab centers are either there by their own choice, but generally in alcohol and drug treatment as part of a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders might be required to go to rehabilitation either instead of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been proven that people who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues rather than other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of remaining out of the courts than those who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which prompt their substance abuse. This could certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those that may be affected by their substance abuse when they drive while drunk or high down the road. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
