DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug and alcohol treatment centers are generally there on their own accord, but most of the time in alcohol and drug rehabilitation due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, particularly initial offenders could possibly be required to go to rehab either instead of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab as an alternative to being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that people who are treated for drug abuse issues rather than other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of staying out of the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to enable them to address these issues in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their substance abuse whenever they drive while under the influence later on. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
