DUI/DWI clients who are involved in alcohol and drug treatment programs are generally there by their own choice, but most of the time in alcohol and drug rehabilitation due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, specifically initial offenders could possibly be ordered to rehab either in lieu of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from treatment instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that individuals who are treated for drug abuse issues instead of other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of staying out from the court system than people who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, so that they can address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances inside their lives which trigger their substance abuse. This may truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their drug abuse when they drive while drunk or high in the foreseeable future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
