DUI/DWI clients that are involved in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers are generally there by their own choice, but usually in alcohol and drug treatment due to a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, specifically initial offenders may be required to go to rehab either in place of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation instead of being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that individuals who are treated for drug abuse issues rather than other penalties being enforced upon them have greater chances of staying out of the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, so that they can address these issues and find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which prompt their drug abuse. This will truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their substance abuse if they drive while drunk or high in the future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
