DUI/DWI clients who are involved in alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs are generally there by their own choice, but usually in drug treatment due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders may be ordered to treatment either in lieu of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from treatment as an alternative to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been established that people who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues instead of other penalties being enforced upon them have greater 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 ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, so that they can address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This may truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their substance abuse whenever they drive while drunk or high in the foreseeable future. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
