DUI/DWI clients that are involved in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers are generally there on their own accord, but most of the time in alcohol and drug rehabilitation due to a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to rehab either in lieu of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from treatment rather than being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been established that those who are treated for substance abuse issues instead of other penalties being enforced upon them have much better chances of remaining out of the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug and alcohol rehab facilities DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which prompt their substance abuse. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be impacted by their substance abuse whenever they drive while drunk or high in the foreseeable future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
