DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in drug rehab facilities are either there by their own choice, but usually in alcohol and drug treatment as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders could be ordered to treatment either in lieu of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from treatment rather than being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that people who are treated for drug abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have much better chances of remaining out from the court system than those people who are fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which prompt their substance abuse. This can certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their substance abuse when they drive while drunk or high down the road. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
