DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug rehabilitation programs are either there by their own choice, but more often than not in drug treatment due to a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, specifically first-time offenders may be ordered to rehab either instead of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of remaining out of the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug abuse. This can truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be impacted by their drug abuse should they drive while under the influence in the foreseeable future. It's a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
