DUI/DWI clients that are involved in drug and alcohol rehab programs are generally there on their own accord, but more often than not in drug and alcohol rehab as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either instead of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been proven that those who are treated for drug abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better chances of remaining out from the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug treatment programs DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, in order to address these problems and find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This could truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their substance abuse should they drive while under the influence down the road. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
