DUI/DWI clients who're taking part in alcohol and drug rehab facilities are generally there on their own accord, but generally in drug and alcohol treatment as part of a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders might be required to go to rehab either in place of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from treatment as opposed to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been proven that people who are treated for drug abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better chances of staying out from the courts than those who are fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which set off their substance abuse. This will certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those that may be affected by their drug abuse when they drive while under the influence in the future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
