DUI/DWI clients who are taking part in alcohol and drug rehab programs are either there on their own accord, but usually in alcohol and drug rehabilitation due to a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, specifically first-time offenders may be ordered to rehab either in place of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehabilitation instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been determined that people who are treated for drug abuse issues rather than other penalties being enforced upon them have far better chances of staying out from the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, in order to address these problems and find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which set off their drug abuse. This could certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug or alcohol use when they drive while drunk or high in the foreseeable future. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
