DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug rehab centers are generally there by their own choice, but most of the time in drug and alcohol rehabilitation due to a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders may be ordered to treatment either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as an alternative to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been determined that those who are treated for drug abuse issues instead of other penalties being enforced upon them have greater odds of remaining out of the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances inside their lives which set off their substance abuse. This will truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their substance abuse if they drive while under the influence down the road. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
