DUI/DWI clients that are involved in alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs are either there on their own accord, but more often than not in drug treatment due to a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly be ordered to treatment either in place of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehabilitation as an alternative to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been established that those who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues rather than other penalties being forced upon them have far better chances of remaining out of the court system than people who find themselves fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these issues and find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This could truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug or alcohol use if they drive while drunk or high later on. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
