DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in alcohol and drug treatment facilities are generally there on their own accord, but most of the time in alcohol and drug treatment as part of a mandatory court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be ordered to rehabilitation either instead of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from treatment rather than being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that those who are treated for substance abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being forced upon them have much better chances of remaining out from the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these issues and find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which prompt their drug abuse. This will certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug abuse whenever they drive while intoxicated in the foreseeable future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
