DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug and alcohol rehab facilities are generally there on their own accord, but most of the time in drug and alcohol rehabilitation due to a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders might be ordered to rehabilitation either in place of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehab instead of being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that individuals who are treated for substance abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being enforced upon them have much better chances of staying out from the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug and alcohol rehab centers DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse alcohol and drugs, in order to address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This can certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their drug or alcohol use should they drive while under the influence in the foreseeable future. This is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
