DUI/DWI clients who're involved in drug treatment facilities are generally there on their own accord, but more often than not in drug rehab as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly 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 an alternative to being punished for their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that people who are treated for substance abuse issues rather than other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of remaining out from the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, so that they can address these problems and find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which trigger their substance abuse. This can truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their substance abuse when they drive while intoxicated in the future. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
