DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs are generally there on their own accord, but more often than not in drug and alcohol rehab due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, specifically initial offenders may be required to go to rehabilitation either instead 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 an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of staying out of the court system than people who find themselves fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to enable them to address these issues and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which trigger their drug or alcohol use. This will truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their substance abuse should they drive while drunk or high in the future. It's a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
