DUI/DWI clients who're taking part in alcohol and drug treatment facilities are generally there by their own choice, but more often than not in drug treatment as part of a mandatory order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, especially first-time offenders could be required to go to treatment either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from treatment as opposed to being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that those who are treated for substance abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better chances of staying out from the court system than those who are fined, ordered to incarceration, etc. In drug rehabilitation facilities DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, so that they can address these problems in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which trigger their substance abuse. This can certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug abuse if they drive while under the influence down the road. It's a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
