DUI/DWI clients that are involved in alcohol and drug treatment facilities are generally there by their own choice, but usually in drug rehab as part of a mandatory court order. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could be ordered to rehab either in lieu of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from treatment rather than being punished for their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been determined that people who are treated for substance abuse issues as opposed to 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 prison time, etc. In drug and alcohol treatment facilities DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to enable them to address these problems and find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which trigger their drug or alcohol use. This may truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their substance abuse whenever they drive while drunk or high down the road. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
