DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in drug and alcohol treatment programs are either there on their own accord, but usually in drug and alcohol rehabilitation due to a mandatory court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could possibly be ordered to rehabilitation either in lieu of other penalties or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehabilitation instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been proven that people who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have much better odds of staying out from the court system than people who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug rehab centers DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which set off their substance abuse. This will certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be impacted by their drug abuse if they drive while under the influence down the road. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
