DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in drug rehab facilities are either there by their own choice, but most of the time in drug and alcohol treatment as part of a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either instead of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as opposed to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that people who are treated for substance abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of remaining out of the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug rehab centers DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances inside their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This could certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be impacted by their drug or alcohol use if they drive while drunk or high in the future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
