DUI/DWI clients who're involved in alcohol and drug treatment programs are either there by their own choice, but generally in drug and alcohol rehab as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, specifically first-time offenders might be ordered to rehabilitation either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from treatment as an alternative to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that people who are treated for substance abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have greater odds of remaining out from the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug rehab centers DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these issues and find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug or alcohol use. This will truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug or alcohol use whenever they drive while drunk or high in the future. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
