DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug and alcohol treatment centers are generally there by their own choice, but more often than not in alcohol and drug rehab as part of a mandated order from the court. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders might be required to go to rehab either instead of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehab instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that individuals who are treated for substance abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being enforced upon them have much better odds of staying out from the courts than people who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, in order to address these issues in order to find resolution to the actual conditions and circumstances in their lives which set off their drug abuse. This will truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be affected by their drug abuse should they drive while intoxicated in the future. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
