DUI/DWI clients who are involved in alcohol and drug rehab programs are generally there on their own accord, but more often than not in alcohol and drug rehab due to a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders might be ordered to treatment either in place of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that those who are treated for drug abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of staying out from the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug rehab centers DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these issues and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This may truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their substance abuse if they drive while under the influence in the foreseeable future. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
