DUI/DWI clients who're taking part in drug and alcohol rehab programs are generally there by their own choice, but more often than not in drug rehabilitation due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to rehabilitation either in lieu of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation rather than being punished because of their 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 enforced upon them have far better chances of staying out from the courts than people who find themselves fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, so that they can address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug or alcohol use. This may certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those that may be affected by their substance abuse if they drive while under the influence in the future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
