DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug and alcohol treatment centers are generally there by their own choice, but usually in drug rehab due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, specifically initial offenders could possibly be ordered to rehab either in lieu of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation as opposed to being punished for their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been verified that those who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues instead of other penalties being enforced upon them have much better odds of staying out of the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment programs DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This will truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their drug abuse when they drive while under the influence later on. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
