DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in drug and alcohol rehab facilities are generally there by their own choice, but more often than not in drug rehab as part of a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders could possibly be ordered to rehabilitation either in lieu of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from treatment instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been determined that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of remaining out of the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be impacted by their drug abuse when they drive while under the influence in the future. It's a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
